The Los Angeles Dodgers have had many moments this season where the outfield has lacked appropriate production both offensively and defensively.
Specifically, Michael Conforto’s .103 batting average during his first 119 games as a Dodger, along with an Outs Above Average ranking in just the seventh percentile across MLB have greatly hampered the left field position.
Manager Dave Roberts spoke about how he isn’t afraid to shake things up in the lineup, regardless of who is underperforming.

Roberts also spoke on the outfielder opposite from Conforto, Teoscar Hernández, and his recent struggles that led to his benching on Sunday.
