What's bad about that is he's got an innings limit of some sorts this year- last year he threw 98 innings(career high). Already has 23 innings this year including the minors. So maybe 100-110 innings left?

Also going to need Hill, Maeda, and Kershaw to stay healthy at least until the all star break.. Looking at the Fan Graphs team projection updated- the only guy left available pre break is Brock Stewart. And if Buehler is innings limited 2nd half- same scenario happens(though Urias may be back).

We've heard that but dude's not even throwing off a mound yet. So if he IS back in July as they say, how fit is he going to be? And he's gonna be super rusty - it's going to take time to dial in command and control, right? It's hard to see how Urias can be a viable starter in 2018. Maybe a few late season spot starts?

Not much to count on here. Ryu has a grade 2 strain which, as I understand it means there was pretty severe tearing of the muscle.

Sounds like Turner will travel with the team to Mexico and take live batting practice, so they've got that going for them, which is nice.[/spackler]

Hilarious that this team, held together with bailing wire and chewing gum, is the one that breaks AZ's consecutive series string. How the hell did they split in AZ? I definitely did not see that coming.

And now things get really dicey for the Dodgers as Kershaw has made a trip to the DL. Biceps Tendinitis. Will be interesting to see how long he's out. Dodgers really now 1 injury to a starter from disaster.
