2020 Los Angeles Dodgers Player Reviews: Jake McGee

Just prior to Opening Day, the Los Angeles Dodgers made a late addition to their bullpen in the form of Jake McGee, who had been released by the Colorado Rockies a few days before.

The left-hander was coming off a disappointing 2019 season that saw him post career-lows in FIP (6.00) and strikeouts per nine innings (7.2). However, a lot of those struggles stemmed from pitching at the hitter-friendly Coors Field.

McGee posted a 5.95 ERA at the ballpark as opposed to a solid 2.91 ERA in 25 road appearances. The hope was that a change of scenery would serve him well, and that a few changes could help him recapture his previous form.
