Julio Urias Will Spend the Rest of the Season in Bullpen

By Djack

After tonight Julio Urias is headed to the bullpen, not due to him struggling, just because he's a 19 year old phenom. Smart move here by Dave Roberts to keep this kid's inning's down to lessen the risk of him injuring his arm. This kid is going to be a special talent in a few years for the Dodgers, him and Kershaw are going to be a scary 1, 2 punch. The Dodgers see what is happening to Stephen Strasburg, perfect example of a young phenom that was overused before his arm could become accustom to a heavy work load. I like the conservative approach by the Dodgers, I'm sure fans would love to see this guy just stay in the rotation so they have another quality starter they can rely on.Him going to the bullpen will definitely make an already good bullpen just that much better. Dodgers are a very talented team with plenty of good starting pitchers so this move to the bullpen isn't going to screw up the way things are operating. Just good to see an organization doing right by a young player.
