Walker Buehler will make his return from his second Tommy John surgery on Monday, nearly two years since his last start.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to get some major help on the mound. Walker Buehler will make his first MLB start since undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2022 on Monday, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters following their victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday. 'The plan is Walker's going to start on Monday,' Roberts said. 'We're excited about that. Everything checked out. It'll be good.
Buehler's 2022 season was the worst in his five years as a big league starter, but he still went 6-3 with a 4.03 ERA in 12 starts before surgery. He made his last rehab start on Tuesday with Triple-A Oklahoma City, with his fastball reaching the mid-90s. Roberts expects Buehler to still be effective when he takes the big league mound again, just with a different approach. 'I think he’s going to still be Walker,' Roberts said. 'He’s going to be attacking.
