Dodgers News: Dave Roberts Intends To Provide Chris Taylor With Ample Opportunities To Emerge From Slump

While the Los Angeles Dodgers have jumped out as one of the more impressive offensive teams to begin the 2019 season, not every position player on the 25-man roster can say they have contributed to that success.

One player who has struggled for the better part of April is utility man Chris Taylor. The 28-year-old hasn’t been able to replicate the production he enjoyed over the previous two seasons in which the Dodgers advanced to the World Series on both occasions.

Entering Friday, Taylor finds himself sporting a weak .161/.246/.242 batting line with two doubles, one home run and six RBI over 69 plate appearances (26 games).
