The Astros recalled Dubin from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin has posted a 4.15 ERA and 45:26 K:BB over 43.1 frames with the Astros this season. The 29-year-old right-hander will give the club a fresh bullpen arm.

The Astros optioned Dubin to Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin fired 8.1 scoreless frames and struck out nine batters after returning to the Astros' bullpen July 30. However, he will be forced back to the minors following the return of Kaleb Ort, who returned from the paternity list Saturday. If Dubin is able to keep his hot streak alive in the minors, he figures to have a good chance of returning to Houston before the end of the year.

The Astros recalled Dubin from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander has a 5.14 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 36:19 K:BB over 35 innings for the Astros this season, and he'll rejoin the big club for Tuesday's matchup with the Pirates. Dubin should fill a low-leverage role while up in the majors.

The Astros optioned Dubin to Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin had pitched both of the last two days, so the Astros will replace him with a fresh bullpen arm in right-hander Kaleb Ort, who was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Dubin has made his last three appearances out of the Houston bullpen, striking out three while allowing one earned run on four hits and one walk across 2.2 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin made 3.1- and 2.2-inning starts on June 30 and July 5, respectively, but he was moved back to the bullpen after the Astros got Jake Bloss back from the injured list shortly before the All-Star break to fill out the final spot in their rotation. Though he notched a three-inning save May 16, Dubin has otherwise operated in a low-leverage role out of the bullpen this season, as he hasn't recorded any holds over his 17 relief appearances.

Dubin did not factor into the decision in Friday's 13-12 win over Minnesota, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk over 2.2 innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin made his second consecutive start and failed to escape the third inning as the Twins collected five hits -- including two for extra bases -- off the Houston right-hander. The 28-year-old now owns a 5.40 ERA and 29:15 K:BB across 28.1 total innings on the season. Jake Bloss (shoulder) is scheduled for a rehab appearance at Triple-A Sugar Land this weekend and will likely step into the rotation for Dubin next week.

Dubin will start Friday's game in Minnesota, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It had been the expectation, but the Astros were holding off officially announcing it in case Dubin was needed in relief before then. The 28-year-old threw 55 pitches over 3.1 innings in a start against the Mets over the weekend, but that was his first start in either the majors or minors this season. It will be a bullpen game for Houston.

Dubin threw 3.1 scoreless innings, walking three and striking out two in Sunday's win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin started a bullpen game for the Astros and turned in his longest outing of the season. Though he didn't generate many strikeouts, he was able to keep the Mets off balance with 12 called strikes on only 55 total pitches. Dubin entered the appearance having given up four earned runs across his last 4.1 innings (three appearances), and he recorded his first scoreless effort since June 12.

Dubin will start Sunday's game against the Mets, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin will kick off what's expected to be a bullpen game for Houston and should handle between one and three innings. The 28-year-old hasn't pitched since Wednesday and logged at least two innings in four of his last six appearances, though he's yet to go deeper than three frames this season.

Dubin was called up from Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dubin will return to Houston after being sent down May 17. The right-hander has appeared in nine games with the Astros this season, producing an inflated 6.59 ERA and 1.61 WHIP over 13.2 innings on the mound.
