Will Dodgers’ Outfield Hold Up for Postseason?
Despite several lingering injury concerns, the Los Angeles Dodgers remain in striking distance to capture a ninth-straight National League West division crown. With 11 games left on the regular-season schedule, Los Angeles trails the San Francisco Giants by just one full game heading into Wednesday’s action.
Injuries have hit the Dodgers hard this year in multiple areas. Among the most recent concerns is the makeup of the outfield, as Cody Bellinger was placed on the injured list on Thursday with a left rib fracture. Chris Taylor remains out of the lineup on Wednesday night with a neck injury, and Gavin Lux even missed time last week with a minor forearm injury.
