Ramon Martinez has the best game score for any LAD starting debut 21 years or younger.

Caleb Ferguson is only twenty-one years old and thus here is the game score leaderboard for Los Angeles Dodgers who made their debut start at the age of twenty-one or younger.

Ramon Martinez has the highest game score at 68. Rick Sutcliffe showed in Sept of 1976 what was to come in 1979 when he won the ROY award. That is kind of odd don’t you think? They gave the young Sutcliffe a start in Sept of 1976 but he didn’t make another start until 1979 when he went onto win the ROY.

I feel bad for Urias in that he will always be on the bottom of these lists and it will never change until another Dodger starter bombs in their debut. I hope it isn’t Caleb.
