Andy McCullogh of the times shared his thoughts on Urias.

Julio Urias crushed for the 2nd start in a row. The thing about being 20 years old is these outings are just as likely as the sterling ones.

The Dodgers confirmed the news on their official Twitter account.

Today, the #Dodgers recalled Josh Ravin from Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned Julio Urías to Triple-A OKC.

Urias will go down to Triple-A to regain his form. The young prospect has struggled over his last two starts but there is no reason to be concerned just yet.
