Banished from 40-man roster The Dodgers designated Erlin for assignment Wednesday.

Impact Erlin's stay with the big club lasted just four days after the Dodgers summoned him from Triple-A Oklahoma City in advance of Saturday's doubleheader with the Cubs. He made two appearances out of the bullpen for Los Angeles, giving up two earned runs across two innings. If Erlin is able to clear waivers, he'll likely slot back into the rotation at Oklahoma City.

Serving as 27th man Erlin's contract was selected by the Dodgers to serve as the 27th man in Saturday's doubleheader against the Cubs, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Erlin joined the Dodgers on a minor-league deal in February and posted a 5.82 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 21.2 innings over five appearances (three starts) at Triple-A Oklahoma City to begin the year. He'll provide additional bullpen depth in Saturday's twin bill before presumably heading back to the minors.

Designated for assignment Erlin was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Saturday.

Impact Erlin had a rough outing Thursday while starting in place of Max Fried (back), and he'll be cast off the 40-man roster as a result. Sean Newcomb was recalled in a corresponding move, but it's unclear who could take Erlin's place in the rotation going forward.

Hit hard in no-decision Erlin allowed five runs on six hits while striking out one across 1.2 innings in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Nationals. He did not issue a walk and did not factor in the decision.

Impact Erlin was starting in place of Max Fried (back). The Nats jumped on the southpaw for three runs in the first and added two more to chase him in the second. Erlin's rough outing brought his ERA up to 8.10 on the campaign, though Atlanta rallied back to keep a loss off his record. If the Braves decide to give the swingman another start, it will likely come Tuesday in Baltimore.

Set to start Thursday Erlin will start Thursday's game against the Nationals, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

Impact Erlin will fill the rotation spot vacated by Max Fried, who landed on the injured list with a back injury. Erlin has a 7.06 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 20:6 K:BB in 21.2 innings over six outings since being acquired by the Braves. He worked three innings of long relief Monday and is unlikely to have the workload of a traditional starter in his return to the rotation.

Could return to rotation Erlin could return to the rotation Thursday in Washington, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Erlin has made four starts and four relief appearances this season, struggling to a 6.84 ERA. He could be needed in the rotation again after Max Fried (back) landed on the injured list Tuesday, though he likely won't pitch deep into Thursday's game if he does get a call, as he threw three innings of relief Monday against Miami.

Works out of bullpen Erlin was used in long relief in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Marlins, covering three innings and giving up two runs on five hits while striking out one.

Impact Heading into the week, Erlin was in line to start Tuesday versus Miami, but manager Brian Snitker wasn't willing to commit to the left-hander getting another turn through the rotation. Erlin's usage out of the bullpen confirms that the Braves will break in a new starter Tuesday, with Mark Bowman of MLB.com speculating that Kyle Wright could be called up from Atlanta's alternate site to join the rotation.

Roughed up again Erlin allowed five earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three across four innings Wednesday against the Red Sox. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Erlin allowed the first four batters he faced to reach base to begin the game, and he surrendered three of his four runs in the opening frame. He did improve from there, with the only major damage a solo home run by Jackie Bradley across his next three innings of work. Erlin now has a 6.95 ERA across 22 innings this season, and is allowing an ugly 2.9 HR/9. He's currently penciled in to draw his next start Monday against Miami.

Impact Erlin was hurt by the long ball as he served up a two-run shot to Andrew McCutchen in the third inning and another to Jean Segura in the fourth. The lefty's ERA has now risen to 6.00 across 18 innings although he does hold a decent 20:5 K:BB. Erlin is next scheduled to take the mound Wednesday in a road matchup against the Red Sox.

Another short outing Erlin didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Phillies, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks over four innings. He struck out three.

Impact Bryce Harper took him deep in the first inning for a two-run shot but Erlin was able to settle down after that, throwing 67 pitches (39 strikes) before leaving the mound. The southpaw has given a beleaguered Atlanta rotation a couple of decent outings, but if the team adds any reinforcements he would likely be the first arm bumped back to the bullpen. If he gets another turn, Erlin's next start would come Friday in a road rematch with the Phillies.
