Heads back to minors Grove was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

Impact Grove was called up for his major-league debut Sunday against the Phillies but spent just one day on the roster before heading back to the minors. He gave up four unearned runs in 3.2 innings in his lone appearance. Caleb Ferguson (elbow) returned from the injured list to claim his roster spot.

With Clayton Kershaw out, Dodgers count on bats, top prospects

The Dodgers' rotation is missing some familiar names, so the team is counting on its offense and farm system, Pedro Moura writes.

With Clayton Kershaw out, Dodgers count on bats, top prospects

Goes 3.2 strong innings in debut Grove didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 5-4 win over Philadelphia, allowing four unearned runs on four hits and three walks with three strikeouts in 3.2 innings.

Impact Making his big-league debut, Grove pitched well aside from the second inning, when a Gavin Lux error extended the inning and led to four unearned runs crossing the plate. The 25-year-old tossed 43 of 70 pitches for strikes and induced eight swinging strikes, though nearly one walk per inning is a bit concerning. It's unclear if Grove did enough to stick with the team for another start.

Promoted for MLB debut Grove was called up from Double-A Tulsa ahead of his start Sunday against the Phillies, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact The 25-year-old will make his big-league debut Sunday in a spot start, filling the gap in Los Angeles' rotation following the placement of Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) on the injured list. Grove struggled at the Double-A level with a 7.86 ERA last year, but he's pitched well so far in 2022 and has a 2.76 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 22:5 K:BB across 16.1 innings.

Set for MLB debut Grove will make his major-league debut Sunday against the Phillies, either as the starter or as the bulk reliever following an opener, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News...

Impact The Dodgers have a spot start available with Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) on the injured list. Grove has yet to pitch above Double-A, but he's impressed in five starts at that level so far this season, posting a 2.76 ERA and a 32.8 percent strikeout rate.

Impact Grove reached Double-A in 2021 with a 7.86 ERA, 1.79 WHIP, 26% K%, and 12.4% BB% in 71 innings. Amongst the four pitchers optioned, Grove is the only one that isn't a non-roster invitee.

Added to 40-man roster Grove was added to the Dodgers' 40-man roster Friday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact This is a little surprising, as Grove compiled a 7.86 ERA and 1.79 WHIP in 71 innings at Double-A last season. The Dodgers obviously think he's better than that, so perhaps he can break out in 2022.
