Up as 27th man The Dodgers recalled Pepiot from Triple-A Oklahoma City to serve as their 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against Miami, Kirsten Watson of SportsNet LA reports.
Impact Pepiot hasn't pitched in the majors yet this season, but he's put up a decent 3.97 ERA and 1.17 WHIP alongside a 26:5 K:BB through 22.2 innings with OKC. With Tony Gonsolin (forearm) on the injured list and likely out for the rest of the season, a solid performance from Pepiot on Saturday would significantly increase his odds of sticking around past Saturday to fill the open rotation spot.

Recalled from OKC The Dodgers recalled Hudson from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
Impact With Tony Gonsolin (forearm) headed for the injured list, Hudson will come up from the minors to provide Los Angeles' bullpen with additional depth. The 26-year-old southpaw has looked impressive through 45.2 innings in Triple-A with a 2.76 ERA and 1.28 WHIP, but his talents have yet to translate into the majors. Until Hudson is able to turn things around, he will likely be limited to low-leverage situations.

Not playing in doubleheader Heyward (hip) won't play in either of Saturday's games against Miami, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Impact Heyward experienced an issue with his hip during Friday's game and had to be removed early. His injury likely won't keep him out long-term, but the Dodgers will have him sit out both games of Saturday's doubleheader in order to give Heyward extra time to recover.

Likely done for season The Dodgers placed Gonsolin on the 15-day injured list Saturday with an elbow injury, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact After officially announcing Gonsolin's move to the injured list, manager Dave Roberts stated that it is unlikely Gonsolin pitches again this season, per David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports. The 29-year-old righty will get an MRI on his elbow next week, at which point the team will have a better idea of whether Gonsolin will be shut down for the year.

Sitting Game 1 Martinez isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader with the Marlins, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Martinez went 1-for-3 in his return to the lineup Friday and will sit out Game 1, allowing Will Smith to serve as the DH and Austin Barnes to start behind the plate. Assuming Martinez's nagging groin injury isn't an issue, the 35-year-old slugger will likely return for the nightcap.

Serving as opener Saturday Ferguson will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader with the Marlins, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Impact Los Angeles is treating the opening game as a bullpen day, so Ferguson will likely work no more than an inning or two before giving way to Ryan Pepiot, who will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and is expected to cover the bulk of the innings for the contest. Ferguson has excelled in a setup role for Los Angeles this season, logging a 2.38 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB across 45.1 innings.

Sitting out Game 1 Rojas isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader with the Marlins, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact After slugging two homers across his last four games, Rojas will catch a breather for the first game of Saturday's activities. Enrique Hernandez will start at shortstop in Rojas' place in Game 1, and the 34-year-old could resume his starting duties in the nightcap.

Battling minor hip issue Heyward is considered day-to-day with a hip issue which forced him to exit Friday's game against the Marlins early, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Heyward suffered the injury while making a sliding catch and left after grabbing a hit in his lone at-bat. The Dodgers haven't indicated that the issue is particularly serious, but with lefty Braxton Garrett on the hill for the Marlins on Saturday, Heyward is probably due to sit even if fully healthy.

Trip to injured list expected Gonsolin has been pitching through an elbow issue but will likely require a trip to the injured list, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact The exact nature of Gonsolin's injury is unclear, but the issue dow help explain his poor run of starts. He allowed 10 runs (including five homers) in 3.1 innings Friday against the Marlins, bringing his ERA over his last six starts to 8.01. The injury could mean Ryan Pepiot sticks around in the rotation after a spot start in Saturday's doubleheader, or it could open a path for Emmet Sheehan or Gavin Stone to get another chance.
