After weeks of speculation as to when they would promote baseball's top left-handed pitching prospect, the Dodgers are expected to add Julio Urias to their roster Friday. He'll start against the Mets in place of Alex Wood, who has triceps tendinitis.
The youngest player in the big leagues once he arrives, Urias will become the first 19-year-old to pitch for the Dodgers since fellow Mexican Fernando Valenzuela in 1980. He'll be the first teenager to start for Los Angeles since Dick Calmus in 1963.
Friday's Dodgers-Mets matchup, an MLB Network Showcase game, can be seen free on MLB.
