• The starting line-up for the Dodgers is as follows:

 

• The Los Angeles Dodgers often tout their roster depth, and the pitching portion of it is on display in a brief two-game series against the Los Angeles Angels this week. Left-hander Tyler Anderson will take the mound for the Dodgers on Wednesday after right-hander Tony Gonsolin was dominant again in the series opener.

• Anderson (7-0, 3.07 ERA) will get a chance to follow Gonsolin’s dominating 6 1/3 innings against the Angels on Tuesday. Anderson will try to rebound from a tough outing Thursday against the Chicago White Sox when he gave up four runs over just three innings of a no-decision.

• He entered that one after three consecutive scoreless outings. As the Dodgers deal with some offensive inconsistencies, a dominating Anderson outing would be appreciated considering his history against the Angels: 0-3 with a 13.83 ERA in four starts.

• Both teams had just three hits Tuesday, but the Dodgers got the best of a 2-0 decision with a bases-loaded walk from Justin Turner and a home run from Mookie Betts.

• Angels rookie left-hander Reid Detmers (2-2, 3.83) will try to expose that shaky offense. He faced the Dodgers once last season, giving up five runs on seven hits over five innings, while taking the loss. Since his no-hitter May 10 against the Tampa Bay Rays, Detmers is 0-1 with a 3.93 ERA over his last four outings. His last two were scoreless over 4 1/3 innings each against the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.

• The Angels also are scuffling on offense under interim manager Phil Nevin, who is now 2-5 since taking over for fired Joe Maddon. The Angels have just one run over their last two games and have been held scoreless over their last 17 innings.

• The Angels had just one hit through eight innings Tuesday before loading the bases with one out against Dodgers closer Craig Kimbrel. But Jared Walsh and Max Stassi struck out to end the game.

• The Angels could be without third baseman Anthony Rendon on Wednesday. He left Tuesday’s game in the fifth inning after he aggravated a right wrist injury that had him on the injured list earlier this month.
