Buehler will be called up to start Friday's game against the Padres, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Already tabbed as Hyun-Jin Ryu's replacement in the rotation, Buehler is set to come up for a more extended period with the big league club starting Friday. Buehler made two starts for the Dodgers recently, notching 11 strikeouts over 10.0 innings while allowing just two earned runs when Rich Hill was on the shelf. Buehler's spot in the rotation appears to be safe for the duration of Ryu's stay on the DL, but he certainly has the potential to stick with the big league club beyond that point if he continues to pitch well.

Buehler will replace Hyun-Jin Ryu (groin) in the starting rotation, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Ryu expected to be sidelined into the second half of the season, the Dodgers will turn to Buehler to fill the void in their rotation. The 23-year-old, who is scheduled to start Friday against the Padres in Monterrey, Mexico, has already made a pair of starts for the big-league club this season, posting a 1.80 ERA and 11:4 K:BB across 10 innings. According to J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News, Buehler may not pitch every fifth day with the Dodgers looking to limit his innings, but it sounds like he should be afforded semi-regular turns in the rotation while Ryu is on the shelf.

EDGE Analysis

Buehler will serve as the Dodgers' 26th man for their upcoming series in Mexico, making him eligible to rejoin the big-league club for what will be his third start of the season despite being optioned to the minors less than 10 days ago. The 23-year-old, who last pitched Saturday against the Giants, will get the ball for the series opener, with Kenta Maeda and Rich Hill (finger) following him. Buehler owns a 1.80 ERA and 11:4 K:BB through 10 innings (two starts) for the Dodgers this season.

Buehler, who was optioned to High-A Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday, is expected to be recalled over the weekend and start one game of the Dodgers' three-game series with the Padres in Monterrey, Mexico, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Though MLB rules dictate that a player must remain in the minors for 10 days after being optioned barring the placement of another player on the disabled list, Buehler will be eligible to rejoin the big club a little early with both the Dodgers and Padres afforded a 26th man for the Mexico series. As such, Buehler's assignment to Rancho Cucamonga looks to be just a procedural transaction to afford the Dodgers some temporary roster flexibility since the 23-year-old wasn't going to be available until Thursday anyway after tossing 94 pitches in his second career MLB start Saturday against the Giants. Buehler could be in line for additional starts beyond his expected outing against the Padres in the event Rich Hill (finger) remains sidelined with an infection through the following week.

Buehler was sent down to High-A Rancho Cucamonga Sunday, Andy McCullough of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Buehler was sent down after tossing five innings Saturday against the Giants. The Dodgers will likely call up a fresh arm to use out of the bullepn for the new few days, seeing as Buehler will need rest following his latest start. In two outings this season, he sports a 1.80 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 10 innings.

Buehler (1-0) picked up the win after allowing two runs on six hits and one walk across five innings in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Giants. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

Buehler started off shaky in this one -- allowing two runs in the first inning on a trio of singles, a walk and a wild pitch -- but he was able to settle in from there and blank the Giants over his next four innings of work. His offense helped him out with eight runs through the first three innings, so the 23-year-old was able to cruise to his first win as a major-league starter. While Buehler now owns an impressive 1.80 ERA and 11:4 K:BB through two big-league starts (11 innings) this season, he'll head back to the minors after serving as the 26th man for the doubleheader as the Dodgers look to limit his workload.

Buehler will start game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader with the Giants, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

No corresponding move will need to be made, as Buehler will simply be named the 26th man for the doubleheader. The top pitching prospect threw five scoreless innings in his season debut, so he'll look to keep the good times rolling against San Francisco starter Chris Stratton on Saturday.

Buehler was optioned to High-A Rancho Cucamonga on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of TrueBlueLA.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is simply to allow Los Angeles to bring in an additional bullpen arm for the next couple of games, as Buehler is still expected to rejoin the Dodgers on Saturday to start one of the team's doubleheader games against the Giants. The top prospect tossed five scoreless innings in his 2018 big-league debut, allowing just four hits and three walks while striking out five batters in a no-decision against the Marlins on Monday.

Buehler tossed five shutout innings and allowed just four hits and three walks while striking out five in a no-decision Monday against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Buehler made his major league debut in place of the injured Rich Hill (finger) and did not disappoint. His fastball was clocked as high as 101.3 MPH, but Buehler didn't overwhelm the Marlins by inducing swings and misses -- Miami whiffed just four times against 89 pitches from Buehler. But he did draw eight ground balls as the Marlins weren't able to draw enough hard contact to get any rallies going. Buehler's time in the majors may be short-lived, as Hill isn't expected to be out for long, but the rookie righty is under consideration to start one game of Los Angeles's doubleheader Saturday against San Francisco.

Buehler is starting Monday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Buehler was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City ahead of Monday's series opener against the Marlins in order to make a spot start in place of the injured Rich Hill (finger). The top prospect allowed eight runs over 9.1 innings of relief with the Dodgers in his big-league debut last season, but he owns an impressive 2.08 ERA and 16:4 K:BB across 13 innings (three starts) with Oklahoma City so far this year. He's a viable streaming option against a weak Marlins team, though he may not stick with the big club long enough to warrant ownership beyond this week -- which could be a two-start week if he pitches well Monday -- in season-long formats.
