LOS ANGELES >> The Dodgers’ magic number is 17.
That’s how many more players need to go on the disabled list this season to match last year’s modern record of 28. Logan Forsythe and Rob Segedin became the 10th and 11th players to go on the DL already this season when they were shut down for at least 10 days Wednesday afternoon.
Forsythe suffered a fracture in the big toe on his right foot when he was hit by a pitch in the first inning of Tuesday’s game. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts described it as “a little hairline thing,” giving the Dodgers hope that Forsythe will be able to return in about two weeks.
