Victor Mederos News: Promotion on tap

Mederos will be recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake to start Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Mederos will be stepping in for Tyler Anderson, who was scratched from his scheduled start due to a back injury. The right-hander last appeared in the big leagues July 7 against the Rangers in a relief role but has been operating as a starter down at Triple-A, surrendering two or fewer runs in each of his last five outings while posting a 1.73 ERA. He tossed four shutout innings in his most recent outing with Salt Lake on Friday, so Mederos will be pitching on three days' rest Tuesday and could be in line for something less than a typical starter's workload in his first career MLB start.
