Dodgers Injury News: Julio Urias' Hamstring Not Responding, Return Timeline Up in Air Not the news the Dodgers wanted to hear!
Julio Urías - Sunday start canceled Urias (hamstring) will not start Sunday against the Phillies as planned, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Urias' hamstring was still giving him problems after a bullpen session Thursday, so his return to the Dodgers' rotation will be pushed back. The 26-year-old lefty will return to throwing off flat ground and his new return date is uncertain, though he will probably require a rehab assignment this time around. A replacement starter for Sunday's game has yet to be announced; however, manager Dave Roberts said a bullpen game is likely.

Michael Grove - In line for bulk relief Grove is in line to serve as a bulk reliever for the Dodgers on Friday against the Phillies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact He had been the projected starter, but the Dodgers have elected to use Victor Gonzalez as an opener first. Grove holds a 5.14 ERA over five starts with the big club this season, although that's come with a 21:7 K:BB.

Victor González - Opening Friday's game Gonzalez will serve as an opener for the Dogers on Friday in Philadelphia, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact Michael Grove had been the projected starter but instead will now be in line for bulk relief innings. With Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper slated to hit for the Phils in the first inning, using the left-handed Gonzalez as an opener makes sense.

Julio Urías - Returning to rotation Sunday The Dodgers are planning to activate Urias (hamstring) from the 15-day injured list to have him start Sunday's series finale in Philadelphia, MLB.com reports.
Impact Urias will get the green light to rejoin the rotation despite not heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment, as manager Dave Roberts said he felt confident about where the left-hander stood on the health front after he completed a two-inning simulated game and two-inning side session Tuesday. Though Roberts acknowledged that Urias' left hamstring still occasionally feels tight, the skipper suggested that the 27-year-old southpaw won't face any limitations when he returns to the mound Sunday.

Michael Grove - Remains in rotation Grove is scheduled to start Friday's game against the Phillies in Philadelphia.
Impact He'll be making his second straight turn through the Dodgers rotation after he returned from a stint on the 15-day injured list June 3 and tossed five innings while striking out seven and allowing four earned runs in a loss to the Yankees. The Dodgers could get Julio Urias (hamstring) back from the IL next week, but with Noah Syndergaard (finger) going on the IL on Thursday, Grove's spot in the rotation appears safe for now.

David Peralta - Collects four hits Peralta went 4-for-5 with two RBI in Thursday's 6-0 victory over the Reds.
Impact Peralta certainly did his part to help the Dodgers snap their five-game losing streak Thursday, delivering a two-out, two-run single in the top of the third to put Los Angeles up 3-0 while reaching base in each of his first three at-bats. He went 4-for-5 in the contest, giving him just his eighth multi-hit game of the season and his first with more than two hits. The left fielder is heating up at the plate, going 13-for-27 over his last nine games with two RBI.

Dustin May - Yet to resume throwing Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that May (forearm) is still weeks away from being cleared to pick up a baseball, per MLB.com.
Impact May suffered a right forearm strain during a start against the Twins on May 17 and was subsequently placed on the 60-day IL. That rules him out until at least mid-July, though it's uncertain if he'll be ready to go then. May received a PRP shot in hopes of avoiding surgery, but Roberts clarified that the team won't have a clear picture of his status for the remainder of the season until he's able to start throwing again.

Daniel Hudson - Begins rehab assignment Hudson (knee) kicked off a rehab assignment with the Dodgers' Arizona Complex League team Tuesday, striking out one batter in a perfect inning.
Impact Hudson tore the ACL in his left knee in June of last year and has been slowly working his way back to action. There was some hope during spring training that the reliever could return by the end of April, but his progress has been slower than anticipated. The Dodgers have the fourth-worst bullpen ERA in the majors this season, so they could certainly use Hudson's help, especially if he can come anywhere close to his 2022 performance, which included a 2.22 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 30:5 K:BB over 24.1 innings. According to manager Dave Roberts, the veteran right-hander is still weeks away from a return, per MLB.com, but he could ascend to a high-leverage role relatively quickly upon his activation.

Chris Taylor - Launches 10th home run Taylor went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's victory over Cincinnati.
Impact Taylor kept the momentum going for the Dodgers with a leadoff homer in the top of the fourth inning to put the team up 4-0 behind a dominant Clayton Kershaw. He would later add a single to give him just his fourth multi-hit game since the start of May. The shortstop came into Thursday's matchup having gone just 3-for-16 since his two homer game on May 28 and remains a highly inconsistent bat in the Dodgers' lineup. He is, however, already up to 10 long balls on the season.

Clayton Kershaw - Dominant in win Kershaw (8-4) earned the win Thursday, allowing five hits and two walks over seven scoreless innings against the Reds. He struck out nine.
Impact Kershaw (8-5) cruised through the Reds lineup Thursday, allowing just five hits and six base runners over seven shutout innings to notch his National League-leading eighth win. The veteran lefty struck out nine batters in the contest for the second straight start, while it was his third time throwing seven scoreless frames this season. Kershaw continues to show no signs of slowing down in his 16th season, producing 17 swinging strikes in Thursday's win.
