Ferguson will start Sunday's game against the Giants, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Dave Roberts confirmed Ferguson will get another turn in the Dodgers starting rotation after allowed two runs on five hits over four innings Tuesday. The 21-year-old was limited to 65 pitches and he could face similar restrictions Sunday, but he remains one of four Dodgers' starting pitchers who is currently not on the disabled list.

Ferguson did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three over four innings against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Making just his second big league start, Ferguson was limited to just 65 pitches and four innings but he was decently effective in that time. The 21-year-old threw 40 of his pitches for strikes -- including six swings and misses -- and all five hits allowed were singles. The Dodgers starting rotation is decimated by injuries at the moment, so the young left-hander may get a chance to stick around for a few turns. He's posted a 1.53 ERA in 10 starts between Double-A and Triple-A, notching 52 strikeouts over 47 innings.

Ferguson was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and confirmed as the start for Tuesday's game against the Rangers, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Ferguson was summoned from the minors ahead of his second big-league start. The young lefty struggled mightily in his first start with the Dodgers earlier in the month, allowing four runs on two hits and three walks across 1.2 innings of work.

Ferguson is scheduled to take the mound Tuesday against the Rangers, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ferguson will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to his second major-league start of the year. He lasted just 1.2 innings, allowing four runs on two hits and three walks while striking out three in his lone big-league outing against the Pirates on June 6.

Ferguson was optioned back to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Andy McCullough of The Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ferguson allowed four runs off two hits and three walks while striking out three over 1.2 innings during the first major-league start of his career. The left-hander only recorded 32 strikes out of his 57 pitches and will return to the minor leagues in order to continue receiving consistent time on the mound.

Ferguson has been confirmed as the starter for the Dodgers' game Wednesday against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Ferguson has split time between Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City this season, accruing a 1.53 ERA and 52:17 K:BB in 47 innings. The Dodgers will presumably wait and see how Ferguson performs Wednesday before deciding whether or not to keep him with the big club a little longer, but the looming return of Kenta Maeda (hip) to the rotation makes it likely that the 21-year-old will just be up with the team for one start.

Ferguson had his contract purchased from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 21-year-old prospect owns an impressive 1.23 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 50:13 K:BB across nine starts (44 innings) between Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City. While nothing has been confirmed at this point, but Rob Cervenka of ThinkBlueLA.com reports that Ferguson could step in to the Dodgers' rotation to make a spot start Wednesday against the Pirates. Either way, the Dodgers will need to make a pair of corresponding roster moves prior to Tuesday's series opener in order to clear room on their active and 40-man roster for Ferguson.
