Posts first save as Yankee Ferguson earned a save against the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out two batters over two-thirds of an inning.

Impact Yankees closer Clay Homes couldn't convert a save chance in the bottom of the 10th inning, and he left in the bottom of the 11th with two runners on base and New York clinging to a two-run lead. Ferguson took over and struck out the first batter he faced before allowing a run-scoring single. However, Arizona had previously lost its DH spot and ran through its list of reserve hitters, so Ferguson intentionally walked catcher Gabriel Moreno to load the bases in order to get to Diamondbacks reliever Scott McGough, who was forced to hit. Predictably, McGough struck out looking, and Ferguson walked away with his first save of the campaign. The left-hander nabbed a career-high three saves with the Dodgers last season, but he's not a threat to Holmes' closer role.

Opener assignment Tuesday Ferguson will serve as the opening pitcher in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader at Colorado, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Ryan Pepiot looks poised to operate in bulk relief for the visiting Dodgers. Ferguson boasts a 2.47 ERA and 67:22 K:BB in 58.1 innings this season, but he'll probably only cover the bottom of the first Tuesday versus the Rockies.

Opening Friday's game Ferguson will serve as an opener for the Dodgers in Friday's game versus the Giants, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Manager Dave Roberts also noted that Ryan Yarbrough will be part of the pitching plan, likely as a bulk reliever. It's the sixth opener assignment this season for Ferguson, who boasts a 2.56 ERA and 66:21 K:BB over 56.1 frames in 2023.

Opener assignment Tuesday Ferguson will serve as the opening pitcher Tuesday against the Tigers, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ryan Pepiot is lined up to operate in bulk relief. Ferguson, 27, carries a steady 2.44 ERA and 63:21 K:BB in 55.1 innings this season with the Dodgers, but he hasn't thrown more than 25 pitches in a single appearance since June.

Collects third save Ferguson struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Monday's 7-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Ferguson got the call for the save with Evan Phillips presumably unavailable after pitching three of the previous four days. Ferguson got the job done on a tidy nine pitches (eight strikes) for his seventh scoreless outing in his last eight appearances. The southpaw is at a 2.70 ERA despite a 1.42 WHIP and 55:21 K:BB through 50 innings this season while collected three saves, 15 holds, four blown saves and a 7-3 record. Ferguson should continue to serve more frequently as a setup option.

Impact Ferguson opened the game for the Dodgers and retired the first two batters he faced before hitting Kole Calhoun with a pitch.

The reliever has not allowed a run in six of his last appearances, though he's also recorded just two strikeouts over that stretch.

Confirmed as opener Thursday Ferguson will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher in Thursday's later game at Cleveland, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Ferguson was not needed in the resumption of Wednesday's suspended game, so he'll get the call to kick off the Dodgers' regularly-scheduled tilt versus the Guardians, likely covering only the first inning before giving way to bulk pitcher Ryan Pepiot. Ferguson, 27, carries a 2.87 ERA and 54:20 K:BB across 47 innings this season with Los Angeles.

AUGUST 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Could be opener in second game Ferguson is expected to serve as the Dodgers' opener in Thursday's later game against the Guardians, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact That could change depending on how the bullpen usage shakes out in the resumption of Wednesday's suspended game. Whatever the case, Ryan Pepiot is lined up to handle the bulk of the innings for Los Angeles in Thursday's regularly-scheduled tilt at Cleveland.

Serving as opener Saturday Ferguson will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader with the Marlins, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Los Angeles is treating the opening game as a bullpen day, so Ferguson will likely work no more than an inning or two before giving way to Ryan Pepiot, who will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and is expected to cover the bulk of the innings for the contest. Ferguson has excelled in a setup role for Los Angeles this season, logging a 2.38 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB across 45.1 innings.

Nabs win Wednesday Ferguson (6-3) earned the win over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday with a perfect inning in relief.

Impact The game was scoreless through six frames, but Dodgers starter Bobby Miller opened the seventh by allowing the first two batters he faced to reach base. Ferguson took over and quickly stamped out the threat, making a nifty diving catch on an attempted sacrifice bunt and doubling the runner off second. He then retired Corbin Carroll to end the inning, and Ferguson took the win as a result of Los Angeles scoring two runs in the bottom of the frame. The southpaw has been a key piece of the team's bullpen this season, collecting six wins, 14 holds and two saves while posting a 2.91 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 52:20 K:BB over 43.1 innings.

AUGUST 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ferguson's ERA is up to 3.91 through 23 innings this season with a 1.48 WHIP and 27:10 K:BB.
