MILWAUKEE – Is the starting rotation of the Dodgers loaded if there is no room for Julio Urias?

Urias heads to work with Hyun-Jin Ryu returning from the injured list on Saturday, although Urias allowed no shots until the fifth inning Thursday night in the Dodgers' 3-1 win Brewers on their return to Miller Park, last year 's pennant scene. The Dodgers have won five straight games.

At least publicly, Urias adhered to the "all-in-one" mentality of the Dodgers, to the point of offering an unexpected verbiage to describe his feelings about his demotion.

"I'm happy, very happy," said Urias, whose nine career shootouts are the best in his career, "That's what the team decided, I'm not here to create my own roles. why they're going to do it, I'll be ready and I'll stay strong. "

He's behind Clayton Kershaw, Ryu, Walker Buehler, Kenta Maeda, Rich Hill – after a fresh start of rehab – and even Ross Stripling on the depth chart, at least for now. We must take into account the seniority, the value of Urias as a multi-task reliever and the strategy of the management to avoid the sleeves of his talented but delicate arm, to avoid him to start late in the game. season.

"We think he's a starter in the Major League," said Dave Roberts, Dodgers coach. "With whom we have in our rotation, to reduce his sleeves, it's best for the Dodgers now and going forward."

Roberts however indicated that Urias should end up in the rotation later in the season.

"There is a lot of baseball left," said Roberts. "The best way to handle it over the next three or four months is the best, and ultimately winning is a decision we make."

Roberts said that he was confident that Urias would be entrusted with a sufficient number of assignments for several innings, which would allow him to remain vigilant and not to lose the feeling that he was not going to leave the house. he had shown against the Brewers.

In addition to a pair of promenades, Urias, 22, has only allowed two singles in the center of Orlando Arcia in the fifth inning. He made 91 shots and was supported by a solo circuit of Cody Bellinger – his 10th tied with Christian Yelich, who also played in the game – a two-point homer of Max Muncy and Alex Verdugo. Hernan Perez tries to score from the second on Lorenzo Cain's single in two sets to finish the eighth inning.

"It's hard to believe he's a kid," said Muncy. "He launches like a veteran. He has electrical tricks and clearly shows why he is the future. "

Roberts praised Urias' command of fastball, as well as his change.

"The difference between fastball and change was subtle," Roberts said, "and these guys were not taking good oscillations."

Urias is the second Dodger to allow a single shot and eliminate at least nine Brewers in his debut, joining Chan Ho Park, who achieved the feat in 2000. This was a significant rebound for Urias, beaten by Milwaukee for five minutes. works a week ago.

Matt Albers scored both starts in the sixth inning. He took over from Zach Davies, a right-hander who frustrated the Dodgers for the second time this week, posing as a traffic jam in five scoreless innings.
