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.

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.

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.

EDGE Analysis

Walker is going to be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City to start Monday's game against the Marlins. Although the Dodgers may opt to send him back to Triple-A after his upcoming start, he's under consideration to be used in Saturday's doubleheader. In addition to Buehler, the Dodgers are expected to use either Hyun-Jin Ryu or Rich Hill (finger) for their other game Saturday.

Buehler will be recalled rom Triple-A Oklahoma City and start Monday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers will call upon their top pitching prospect to make a spot start against an exploitable Marlins' lineup. Buehler allowed eight runs over 9.1 innings of relief with the big-league club last season but currently sports a 2.08 ERA and 16:4 K:BB with Oklahoma City this season. He's a valid DFS or streaming option but may not be in the majors long enough to warrant extended roster ownership in season-long formats.

Buehler is an option to start for the Dodgers on Monday against the Marlins, Eric Stephen of TrueBlueLA.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Rich Hill (finger) landing on the disabled list and the Dodgers lined up for a doubleheader against the Giants on 4/28, Los Angeles will need an extra starter for at least one game next week. Buehler, who last pitched for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, is one of two options to enter the rotation, along with Brock Stewart. The highly regarded prospect has made three starts for Oklahoma City so far this year, compiling a 2.08 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 16:4 K:BB across 13 innings of work. If Buehler is called upon to make a spot start Monday, he could stick in the rotation to pitch one of the two doubleheader games, depending on how he performs.

EDGE Analysis

Buehler dazzled in his Cactus League debut over the weekend, striking out five batters in a pair of scoreless innings, but he was always expected to open the year in the minors barring an injury to the Dodgers' starting rotation. The highly-regarded prospect could earn a promotion early in summer, though that will likely depend on how he does at Triple-A and the Dodgers' rotation status. He could throw 140 to 150 innings this year after being limited to 98 frames in 2017.
