Dodgers pitcher Walker Buehler to stay in starting rotation

Stuck with a losing record, robbed of Hyun-Jin Ryu until after the All-Star break, the Dodgers have installed Walker Buehler as a member of their starting rotation. After contributing six innings in Friday's combined no-hitter over the Padres, Buehler will line up with the other four starters for the foreseeable future, manager Dave Roberts said.

"Obviously, with respect to what happened to Ryu, and the way Walker's pitched, we expect Walker to continue to make starts for us," Roberts said.

Buehler dominated the Padres on Friday. He fanned eight and permitted only three walks.
