Stripling (oblique) is making a rehab start Tuesday for Triple-A Buffalo, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

If things go well in this start, Stripling could be an option to pitch in Saturday's doubleheader in Baltimore on three days' rest, although he obviously wouldn't log a full starter's workload in that scenario. Either way, it seems like he will be back in the big-league rotation in short order if he avoids setbacks.
