Dodgers News: Kenley Jansen Calls Spring Training ‘A Joke’; Ready For World Baseball Classic

As the month of March continues on, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the rest of Major League Baseball press ahead with their preparation for 2017 Opening Day. This spring not only signaled the return of baseball, but also the 2017 World Baseball Classic.

Adrian Gonzalez, Kiké Hernandez, Sergio Romo, Rob Segedin and Alex Verdugo were among the Dodgers who departed Camelback Ranch to represent their respective countries in the international tournament. Kenley Jansen could have followed suit, but elected to remain with the Dodgers.

That was until Netherlands played their way out of the first two rounds and into a WBC semifinal matchup at Dodger Stadium.
