Maeda was officially recalled to start Monday's game against the Rockies.
The Dodgers took advantage of a transactional loophole when they optioned Maeda to their Rookie-level team on Friday. While a player typically must wait 10 days to be recalled, Maeda is able to rejoin the Dodgers after just three days since the Rookie-level team's season concluded Sunday. As such, Maeda will be added to the 25-man roster, taking the place of Sunday's starter, Brock Stewart, who was optioned to Double-A Tulsa on Monday.
