Kenley Jansen is a borderline Hall of Fame candidate due to the overwhelming success he had when he was a member of the Los Angeles Angels' crosstown rivals. While Jansen was a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers, the now 38-year-old posted a 2.37 ERA, 2.37 FIP, 0.93 WHIP, 13.05 K/9 with 350 saves in 12 MLB seasons. After the 2016 season, a 29-year-old Jansen was going to be a free agent, and the Dodgers made an obvious move that is going to prevent the Angels from cashing in on Jansen almost a decade later.
