Kenley Jansen undergoes heart surgery

Dodgers’ closer Kenley Jansen underwent an ablation procedure Monday in Los Angeles to correct an issue the big man was having with his heart during the regular season.

The procedure, done by Dr. Koonlawee Nademanee, went as expected and Jansen is resting comfortably in the hospital according to the team. The club anticipates Jansen will be ready for Spring Training and available on Opening Day.

“Guys, I’m fine,” Jansen said in a video he posted to social media after it was all done. “The anesthesia is finally out of my system. I’m doing good.
