Scott Baker lined up for Sunday start with Dodgers

With Joe Wieland taking the mound on Saturday night to start for Triple-A Oklahoma City, the makes it fairly clear that Scott Baker will be called up to start for the Dodgers in Sunday's series finale against the Padres at Petco Park in San Diego.

Wieland was scratched from his Friday start with OKC, which led to some speculation that he might be getting the call for Sunday, and reported as such by Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times. But it turns out Wieland was scratched on Friday so he could start in Baker's place on Saturday, against the Omaha Storm Chasers (Royals) in the first game of a homestand.
