Brasier will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher for Friday's game against the Rockies in Los Angeles, SportsNet LA reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier will pick up his third start of the season, but like the previous two occasions, he'll presumably work just one inning before turning the game over to the bullpen. The Dodgers recalled right-hander Ben Casparius from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday and could look to him to work in bulk relief behind Brasier.

Brasier pitched 1.1 perfect innings out of the bullpen in Saturday's loss to the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier took over for starter Bobby Miller with a runner on third base and two outs in the fifth inning and retired Nolan Arenado to end the threat. Brasier then returned to the mound in the sixth and needed just five pitches to set the side down in order. This was the righty reliever's first major-league game action since April 27. He appears to be past the calf injury that necessitated a stay on the 60-day IL.

Brasier (calf) was activated from the 60-day injured list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

He hasn't pitched for the Dodgers since April 27 but did not allow a run while striking out 12 and walking one in eight innings during his rehab at Triple-A. Brasier should pitch in mid-leverage situations down the stretch.

Brasier (calf) is likely to be activated from the 60-day injured list Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier last pitched for the Dodgers on April 27, and he was placed on the IL two days later due to a right calf strain. He's looked great since beginning a minor-league rehab assignment in late July, pitching eight scoreless innings and posting a 12:1 K:BB over eight appearances. Brasier may be held to lower-leverage situations upon his return to the majors in order to shake off any rust, but he could rise up the bullpen pecking order if he fares well.

Brasier (calf) has made seven appearances in his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City, tallying 6.2 scoreless innings during which he's given up four hits and posted a 10:0 K:BB.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier pitched on back-to-back days for the first time during his rehab stint last week and is so far cruising through the minor-league assignment. The righty reliever last pitched for the big-league Dodgers on April 27, which explains why he's logged so many appearances in the minors. Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports that Brasier is expected to rejoin Los Angeles' bullpen sometime during the team's three-game series in St. Louis that begins Friday.

Brasier (calf) will throw to hitters Tuesday and will begin his rehab program with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier landed on the injured list April 29 due to a right calf strain, and he was transferred to the 60-day IL on June 13. He appeared in 12 games prior to his injury, posting a 4.63 ERA and 1.11 WHIP across 11.2 frames. Given how long he's been out of action, Brasier will likely need multiple rehab outings before joining the Dodgers' rotation.

Brasier (calf) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier strained his right calf April 29 and has resumed playing catch. He'll officially be out until the end of June with this move, though it's not clear that he'll be activated when first eligible.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Brasier (calf) remains "a ways out" from returning to action, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier landed on the IL with a strained right calf in late April. A subsequent MRI revealed that the injury is mild, and the righty reliever has resumed playing catch. However, Roberts' comments indicate that Brasier isn't yet nearing a return. He'll likely need a minor-league rehab stint before rejoining Los Angeles' bullpen.

Brasier was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a right calf strain, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brasier suffered the injury warming up before Monday's contest, and he'll undergo an MRI on Tuesday, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Gus Varland was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

Brasier is starting Tuesday's game against the Giants, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Timesreports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran right-hander has given up one run with three strikeouts over three innings this season, and he will make the second start of his career Tuesday as he serves as Los Angeles' opener. Ryan Yarbrough is expected to serve as the primary pitcher behind Brasier, though Michael Grove could also be in the mix.
