Los Angeles Dodgers two-time All-Star right-handed pitcher Walker Buehler will get the beginning on Friday for Triple-A Oklahoma Metropolis. Buehler revealed the information himself Wednesday:
Buehler will make his seventh begin within the minor leagues. He holds a 0-2 file with a 4.15 ERA, 21 strikeouts, and a 1.62 WHIP in 21.1 innings. Buehler has made appearances for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes and Oklahoma Metropolis Baseball Membership.
The 29-year-old will make his first look on a mound since June 18 towards the Colorado Rockies. Though the Dodgers got here out on prime in that contest in dramatic trend, it was one more catastrophe of a efficiency from the two-time All-Star, as he recorded one in all his worst outings of the season.
Buehler will look to seek out his groove once more, as he determined to go away the staff and go to Florida to work out at a non-public facility following his stint within the 15-day IL. The precise-handed pitcher is at present on the 15-day IL resulting from hip discomfort, the place he’s been since June 19.

Buehler will likely be a free agent following the season, and if he continues on this trajectory, L.A. may both let him stroll or signal him again at an enormous low cost. That’s nonetheless some methods away, and we’ll see how he progresses with lower than three months from the beginning of the postseason.
