by Ron Cervenka In a move that was pretty much expected, the Dodgers annouced late Sunday morning that they released utility infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor. But perhaps what wasn’t expected is that the team outrighted the 34-year-old Virginia Beach, VA native and fifth-round draft pick in 2012 by the Seattle Mariners out of the University of Virginia as opposed to designating him for assignment, meaning that he is no longer a member of the Dodgers organization in any capacity.
Although a longtime favorite of many, CT3 was slashing a less-than-steller .200/.200/.257/.457 with four home runs and 23 RBIs in the 28 games he appeared in with the Dodgers this season.

The move allowed the Dodgers to activate 30-year-old utility infielder/outfielder Tommy Edman from the 10-day injured list for right ankle inflammation. On the season, Edman is slashing .252/.295/.523/.818, with eight home runs and 24 RBIs entering play on Sunday.
The entire staff at ThinkBlueLA wishes nothing but the very best to CT3 and his family.
Play Ball!

If wishing made it true, CT3 would be hitting .300 and contributing to Dodgers victories. But fans wishes are just that, wishes — and reality made this move inevitable. I hope Taylor and Barnes move into coaching or front office of Dodgers as both are class acts and have always been terrific representives of the team.
