The Los Angeles Dodgers announced that Emmet Sheehan, the promising right-hander, is headed back to the minor leagues after a brief stint with the team.
Sheehan, after getting moved down when Tarik Skubal arrived, had two outings down in Triple-A before coming back to the Dodgers recently for a long relief role.
However, the team is reversing course and giving him another chance to work down in the minors, likely as a starter.
LA needed bullpen pitching badly a few days ago after their key arms were taxed. Sheehan was supposed to help give some quality innings in bulk.
