Still, he has pitched only 103 innings over 20 starts and 19 relief appearances since being picked 24th overall in the 2015 amateur draft, with his career start delayed due to August 2015 Tommy John surgery, meaning he has had limited competitive exposure to this point. Buehler will probably get a look with the Dodgers as either starter or reliever at some point this year, but he'll begin the year in Triple-A ball getting more reps. He could become one of the highest-impact rookie hurlers of 2018 and is therefore a worthy stash in any league where you'd have room. Buehler is also a top dynasty league pitching prospect."},"mostRecentNews":{"date":"Thu Oct 11","news":"Buehler is slated to start Game 3 of the NLCS against the Brewers on Monday, J.P.
