Dodgers' Jose De Leon: Will not start Saturday
De Leon will not be called up to start Saturday against the Cubs, Andy McCullough of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis:
De Leon will not come up Saturday as some had speculated (Julio Urias will get the nod), but those stashing the promising right-hander may only have to wait one additional day. Kenta Maeda has been pushed back to Monday, leaving Sunday's starter as "TBA." De Leon is currently listed as Sunday's probable starter for Triple-A Oklahoma City.
