  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Fine in no-decision

    Buehler allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Tuesday.

    Buehler was able to limit the damage to solo home runs by Logan O'Hoppe and Taylor Ward. This was the first time Buehler completed five innings in four starts since he returned from a hip injury in mid-August. He's struggled to a 5.67 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 45:20 K:BB over 54 innings across 12 starts this year. Buehler's next start is projected to be at home versus the Cubs.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Unimpressive in no-decision

    Buehler did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's win over the Orioles, allowing four runs (two earned) on five hits and one walk over 4.2 innings while striking out four.

    Buehler retired the first four batters he faced before Ryan O'Hearn reached on a fielding error by Max Muncy with one out in the second. Cedric Mullins then reached on a dropped third strike, and Baltimore tallied three runs in the frame Buehler was later relieved by Anthony Banda after throwing 90 pitches on the night, marking the fourth consecutive start in which he's been unable to make it through five innings. The right-hander has also allowed multiple runs in eight straight outings (dating back to May 25 against the Reds) and now holds a 6.00 ERA and 8:8 K:BB across 12 frames in August.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Another short outing Tuesday

    Buehler did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's win over the Mariners, allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out one over four innings.

    Buehler struggled once again Tuesday and recorded his lowest strikeout total of the season. The Mariners got to him early with two runs in the first and another run in the third. One positive from the outing was that Buehler did not allow a home run, which is something he's done only one other time this season. The 29-year-old now sits at a 6.09 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 35:17 K:BB in 44.1 innings. Buehler's spot in the rotation is safe for now, but he could be at risk of being moved to the bullpen for the postseason. He lines up to make another start against the Orioles next week.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Struggles in return to rotation

    Buehler did not factor into the decision in a loss to the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing four runs (one earned) on three hits and four walks over 3.1 innings while striking out three.

    Buehler got off to a horrendous start in his return to the rotation following a stint on the injured list, walking the first three batters he faced before then being tagged for a leadoff homer to open the bottom of the second. He would see two more runs come home in the second inning, though both were unearned on account of a fielding error by Nick Ahmed. The right-hander also walked the leadoff man to begin the third and had to be relieved by Anthony Banda with just one out in the frame. Buehler has now seen at least three runs come across in each of his last six starts (dating back to May 25 against the Reds), while his four walks Wednesday matched a season high. He's also lost his last three decisions.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Activated ahead of start

    Buehler (hip) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start against the Brewers on Wednesday.

    Right hip inflammation forced Buehler onto the injured list June 19, but he's now set to return to the Dodgers rotation for the first time in nearly two months. During his rehab assignment, the 30-year-old righty allowed nine earned runs in 12.2 innings across three starts with Triple-A Oklahoma City, though he gave up only one run in 5.1 frames during his most recent outing. Landon Knack was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Confirmed to start Wednesday

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Buehler (hip) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Brewers in Milwaukee, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Buehler initially looked to be tracking toward a return from the IL for Thursday's series finale with the Brewers, but he'll instead face Milwaukee a day earlier for what will be his first MLB outing since June 18. The right-hander made three rehab starts at Triple-A Oklahoma City, and after giving up eight runs in 7.1 innings between his first two starts, he appeared to right the ship in his final outing in the Pacific Coast League on Thursday. Buehler built up to 85 pitches Thursday, covering 5.1 innings and striking out five while allowing one hit and three walks. Before going on the injured list with right hip inflammation, the 29-year-old logged a 5.84 ERA with a 31:10 K:BB across 37 innings over his eight starts.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Eyeing Thursday return

    Buehler (hip) could rejoin the rotation during next week's four-game road series against Milwaukee, with Aug. 15 being the current target date, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Buehler made what is assumed to be his final rehab start Thursday, tossing 5.1 innings for Triple-A Oklahoma City and yielding one run on one hit with five Ks. The 29-year-old got up to 85 pitches and shouldn't be expected to have a pitch count once he rejoins the big-league rotation. The right-hander hasn't pitched for the Dodgers since June 18 due to right hip inflammation.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Needs another rehab start

    Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Buehler (hip) will make one more rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Buehler has struggled mightily in his last two rehab outings, giving up eight earned runs in 7.1 innings while striking out nine batters and walking five. His next outing will most likely be his final appearance in the minors, regardless of his performance, though he could be relegated to the bullpen if he's unable to turn things around.

  • Dodgers' Walker Buehler: Inefficient again

    Buehler (hip) threw 3.1 innings while allowing four runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out six during a rehab outing with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

    Buehler needed 86 pitches to record 10 outs, as he continued to struggle with his control. Positively, he did manage to strike out six, a significant increase from his first rehab appearance Friday. It's possible that the Dodgers activate him for his next turn through the rotation, though they could also opt to give him another outing in the minors in hopes of him throwing strikes more consistently.
