Urena will start Friday's game against the Braves, MLB.com's Joe Frisaro reports.
Manager Don Mattingly revealed Monday that Wei-Yin Chen (elbow) won't be ready to come off the disabled list when eligible Friday, so Urena will get an opportunity to build on his dominant start May 7 against the Mets, when he tossed six shutout innings while ceding one hit and one walk in a victory. Even though Chen is expected back the following week, Urena appears to have a good shot at retaining a rotation spot on at least a short-term basis after the Marlins demoted struggling fifth starter Adam Conley to Triple-A New Orleans on Tuesday.
