Prior to Wednesday's game, the Dodgers activated both Walker Buehler and Pedro Baez. In order to make room on the roster, reliever Dylan Floro was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City, while lefty Zac Rosscup was sent to the DL with middle finger inflammation.
It was expected that Buehler would start the series finale with the Phillies, but Baez wasn’t supposed to be activated until the team moved on to Atlanta Thursday.
