What Went Wrong for Corey Knebel in 2020

The recent Corey Knebel acquisition made by the Dodgers is fitting with a reoccurring theme this front office has implemented in recent years.

They tend to seek out reclamation projects in the bullpen, hoping that the player comes close to recapturing the glory of years past.

Guys like Blake Treinen and Brandon Morrow come to mind, and both of those flyers ended up working out relatively well for the Dodgers.

Knebel had Tommy John surgery which forced him to miss all of the 2019 season, and he returned in 2020 with lackluster results.
