Dodgers’ closer Kenley Jansen might miss upcoming series against Rockies due to concerns over irregular heartbeat

Dodgers’ closer Kenley Jansen, who missed the team’s August series in Colorado due to an irregular heartbeat, might be held out of Los Angeles’ upcoming games at Coors Field this weekend due to precautionary concerns related to the same issue.

Los Angeles comes to LoDo for a three-game series this Friday through Sunday, and according to MLB.com’s Ken Gurnick, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is considering keeping his three-time all-star at home.

“With Kenley and altitude and going to Denver, it’s certainly going to be a conversation we’re going to revisit during this series,” Roberts told Gurnick on Monday.
