Pitches out of bullpen Sunday Price struck out one batter in a perfect relief inning Sunday versus Arizona.

Impact The veteran hurler had worked as a starter in each of his previous four appearances, compiling a 3.71 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 17 innings. His relief appearance Sunday doesn't necessarily indicate a permanent return to the bullpen -- the Dodgers may simply have been taking advantage of a light schedule that has them playing only five times over the next eight days. That said, the recent acquisition of Max Scherzer and looming return of Clayton Kershaw (forearm) could eventually lead to Price's return to a relief role.

Struggles in loss Price (4-1) took the loss Thursday against the Giants after surrendering four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out two across 4.1 innings.

Impact After walking the bases loaded in the first inning, Price managed to limit the damage to a two-run double by Brandon Crawford before escaping. While he was able to keep the ball in the park, his shaky command in the first inning came back to haunt him while a lack of run support from his teammates strapped him with his first loss of the season. In the process of being stretched out to slot into a full-time starting role, the southpaw was coming off his longest outing of the season (5.2 innings) but labored with a 64-pitch workload this time around. Price will carry a 3.63 ERA and 1.48 WHIP into his next projected start Wednesday against Houston.

JULY 29, 2021 • Associated Press

Lasts 5.2 innings in no-decision Price allowed three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out four over 5.2 innings Friday against the Rockies. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Price easily had his longest outing of the season as he continues to push toward a full-time starter's workload. Elias Diaz took him yard in the third inning and then Trevor Story hit a long ball in the sixth. Price walked Charlie Blackmon as his last hitter of the day and would eventually be charged with a third run after Blackmon scored before the inning concluded. The 35-year-old lefty owns a 3.35 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 39:11 K:BB over 40.1 innings and is set up to face the Giants on the road next week.

Will increase pitch count Price stated Sunday that his pitch count will rise in his next start and that he is working toward a full-time starter role without limitations, Michael J. Duarte of NBC LA reports...

Impact After working out of the bullpen most of the season, Price has been thrust into a starter role due to the absences of Dustin May (elbow), Clayton Kershaw (forearm) and Trevor Bauer (not injury related). May is out for the season, Kershaw is unlikely to return until August and Bauer's status is fully up in the air, making Price a valuable asset in a suddenly thin rotation. The veteran southpaw threw a season-high 66 pitches in his start Sunday, and he figures to work his way up from there before going off a pitch limit entirely. The 2012 AL Cy Young Award winner is likely past the peak of his pitching ability, but he could still be a viable fantasy target for managers in need of a backend starter.

Blackmon's 10th inning homer lifts Rockies past Dodgers 6-5

Charlie Blackmon hit a solo homer in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Colorado Rockies a 6-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers

JULY 18, 2021 • Associated Press

Limits Rockies over four innings Price allowed one run on two hits and one walk in four innings of a no-decision Sunday against Colorado. He had four strikeouts.

Impact Price threw a season-high 66 pitches, 42 of them for strikes, with the only damage coming on Charlie Blackmon's RBI single in the first inning. The Dodgers continue to build Price up to a more traditional starter's workload, but so far he's limited opponents to just six hits in seven innings over his two starts since stepping into the rotation, fanning seven against a pair of walks. Price tentatively lines up to face the same Rockies again next week, this time at Dodger Stadium.

No-decision in successful start Price started Friday's 5-2 loss to Arizona, going three innings and allowing four hits and a walk with three strikeouts.

Impact Price was able to escape a bases-loaded jam in the first and allowed a single runner in the second and third before being removed following the third inning. His 51 pitches represented a season high as Los Angeles looks to extend Price as a result of Trevor Bauer's potential extended absence.

Escobar hits 20th HR, Diamondbacks top shaky Dodgers 5-2

JULY 10, 2021 • Associated Press

Confirmed as Friday's starter Price will be the starting pitcher for Friday's game against Arizona, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Price was tabbed as the likely Friday starter earlier in the week and now he's officially been penciled in on the lineup card. With Trevor Bauer (not injury related) and Clayton Kershaw (forearm) currently out, Price is expected to begin getting stretched out to be able to throw starter innings. The Dodgers will be looking to get around three innings out of the veteran southpaw, so he likely won't be able to qualify for a win. Per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, manager Dave Roberts said Friday that it is a "fair assumption" to say that Price will remain in the rotation for the foreseeable future.
