After having lost nearly every game in which Dodgers All-Star closer Kenley Jansen was on the 10-day disabled list for an irregular heartbeat (most during the opposing team’s final at-bat), Dodger fans were ecstatic to learn that their beloved California Love right-hander had been medically cleared to come off the DL at the 10-day minimum.

There are three guarantees in life: Death, Taxes, Chris Taylor striking out. …or Austin Barnes, or Matt Kemp, or Max Muncy, or even Yasiel Puig; and to a lesser extent Cody Bellinger, Joc Pederson and Yasmani Grandal. Taylor, last season’s superhero, has struck out 142 times thus far this season – most in the National League […]
