Moving back into rotation
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after Wednesday's 6-5 loss to Atlanta that Lauer will move back into the rotation next week as a replacement for Roki Sasaki (finger), who is set to be placed on the injured list, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Analisi
Just a few days after the team announced that Lauer would shift to the bullpen to accommodate Tyler Glasnow's return from the IL, the 31-year-old southpaw will now reclaim a spot in the rotation after Sasaki exit his start Wednesday due to a blister. Lauer, who gave up one run over two innings of relief following Sasaki's departure, owns a 3.78 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 44:18 K:BB in 69 innings since being acquired by the Dodgers in May.

Shifting to bullpen
Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Lauer will be available out of the bullpen going forward, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Analisi
The veteran left-hander has started in 11 of his 12 appearances for the Dodgers and has a 3.76 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 43:16 K:BB across 67 innings, but the return of Tyler Glasnow (back) from the 60-day injured list during the upcoming weekend will allow the club to bolster its bullpen by changing Lauer's role. Shohei Ohtani (knee) could also be ready to resume making starts on the mound in the first week of September, and Lauer would be a logical option to piggyback the four-time MVP as he ramps up his pitching workload.
