2018 Dodgers Review: Chris Taylor
Photo by Rob Carr/Getty ImagesChris Taylor played all over the diamond again for the Dodgers in 2018. Even with a slightly down year compared to last year’s numbers, Taylor turned in a solid season as a super utility.
Making starts at four different positions, Taylor proved he was worthy of a second consecutive year with significant playing time. He made 73 starts at shortstop in the absence of Corey Seager and 50 more in the outfield.
Even with his overall slash line taking a dip, Taylor still hit 17 home runs and had career highs in doubles (35), triples (8) and walks (55). His 36 multi-hit games ranked second behind Cody Bellinger (41).
