The Dodgers have been on a tear in the month of July. LA entered Saturday’s game against the Giants at Dodger Stadium with a 15-2 record and a 10.5 game lead in the NL West over the San Diego Padres. LA has done it all without a lineup linchpin in Chris Taylor.
Taylor was placed on the injured list on July 6th after a CT scan revealed a foot fracture. CT3 suffered the injury during a weekend series against the Padres. He tried to play through it, but once the scan came back positive for a fracture, LA had no choice but to shut him down.
