Getting start Wednesday Pepiot will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City to start for the Dodgers on Wednesday versus the Diamondbacks, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Things had been pointing toward Pepiot taking the ball and manager Dave Robert confirmed it following his team's win over Arizona on Tuesday. Pepiot yielded one run over four innings in a bulk relief appearance for the Dodgers last week and figures to have a relatively limited workload Wednesday.

Tallies three hits Peralta went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 9-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact Peralta has slumped in August -- this was just his third multi-hit effort of the month. The outfielder has also seen his power dip this month with just six doubles among his 18 hits over 23 contests. For the year, he's at a .275/.309/.401 slash line with seven home runs, 49 RBI, 39 runs scored, three stolen bases and 18 doubles over 109 games. He continues to primarily play in a strong-side platoon role in left field.

Perfect at plate Tuesday Taylor went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 9-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact It was a strong effort for Taylor on his 33rd birthday. He had gone just 6-for-25 with two extra-base hits and no steals over his last nine games. The versatile veteran is now at a .228/.317/.427 slash line with 13 steals, 13 home runs, 40 RBI, 41 runs scored, 12 doubles and a triple over 93 contests this season.

Knocks solo shot Smith went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact Smith has had a rather modest August, batting .247 (23-for-93) with four homers and 14 RBI over 24 contests. This was his second straight multi-hit game, and his sixth such effort of the month. The veteran catcher is at a .271/.366/.461 slash line with 17 long balls, 66 RBI, 67 runs scored and two stolen bases over 104 games this season.

Lifts 36th homer Betts went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 9-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact Betts' 13-game hitting streak ended with an 0-for-4 effort Monday. He got right back on track with his fifth homer and 11th multi-hit effort over his last 15 contests. That prodigious surge has him up to a .314/.406/.612 slash line with 36 homers, 94 RBI, 112 runs scored and 10 stolen bases through 125 games this season.

Cruises to 12th win Kershaw (12-4) allowed a run on three hits and three walks while striking out five over five innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Diamondbacks.
Impact The Dodgers took control of this game early, so Kershaw was pulled with 79 pitches (42 strikes). He wasn't at his sharpest, but he was good enough to collect his second win in four starts since returning from a shoulder injury. The southpaw has allowed four runs over 17 innings in that span. He's now at a 2.48 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 120:29 K:BB through 112.1 innings over 20 starts this season. If the Dodgers keep giving him ample run support, he may continue to see shorter outings down the stretch to stay fresh for the postseason. Kershaw is lined up for a challenging home start against Atlanta this weekend.

Could still pitch again in 2023 Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that a return from the 60-day injured list is "still in play" for Hudson this season, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact While Roberts isn't discounting the possibility of the right-hander pitching out of the bullpen in September, Hudson has yet to resume facing hitters since landing on the IL on July 6 with a sprained MCL in his right knee. Even if he's able to ramp up quickly, Hudson is likely still multiple weeks away from being activated and will probably require multiple appearances in the minors to hone his command after the lengthy layoff from game action.
