Jansen to Miss 3-4 Weeks For Irregular Heartbeat

Ouch.

We may have had a great comeback victory vs. the Rockies last night, but the high altitude of Coors Field felled closer Kenley Jansen, who has had heartbeat issues flare up in Denver in the past:

Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen is expected to miss about a month with an irregular heartbeat, sources told ESPN's Buster Olney.

Jansen was taken to the hospital with the issue before Thursday's game at Colorado.

Manager Dave Roberts said after the Dodgers' 8-5 victory that Jansen was at the team hotel earlier in the day and didn't feel right.
