Over the All-Star break, the Dodgers acquired right-handed outfielder Jake Marisnick, a member of the 2017 world-champion Houston Astros. The 2017 Astros cheated during the World Series against the Dodgers.
The media in Los Angeles won’t let the story die. Clayton Kershaw, Austin Barnes and Chris Taylor are the only members of the 2017 Dodgers still on the team, however, the addition of Marisnick is unpopular with the Los Angeles media. They asked Kershaw about the signing.
“I know him a little bit. I’ve been on vacation with him, ironically enough,” Kershaw said.
