There’s media drama surrounding the roster moves necessary for B-Weez to return from a stint on the disabled list.
Wilson went on the 15-day DL following his epic loss against to Padres on March 30, but the Dodgers went 7-3 in his absence. Someone from the strong Dodger bullpen would have to be sent down to bring back Weez:

The Los Angeles Times highlighted the merits of Chris Withrow, a 25-year-old reliever who has struck out nine batters and allowed one hit in his first six innings of work in 2014:

Adding to the drama: Wilson’s DL time expires as the Dodgers begin a three-game series in San Francisco. The last time the B-Weez was in AT&T Park?
