Sometimes you're the buzz saw. Sometimes you run into it. The Dodgers had a great season, but the World Series champion Nationals are a team that wasn't a favorite.
Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen will not opt out of his contract with two years and $38 million remaining on it, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
The Dodgers failed to consistently execute in their five playoff games against the Nationals’ elite pitching. They racked up 64 strikeouts, or 12.8 per game. Corey Seager went 3 for 20 with eight strikeouts and is a .203 career playoff hitter in 131 plate appearances. Cody Bellinger finished 4 for 19 with seven strikeouts and is a .178 hitter in 145 career postseason plate appearances.
“I think it’s on all of us,” Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said last month. “But I think human nature is to want to be the hero, which I totally understand. But it’s that in October, I think pitchers feed off that.”Rendon, a 29-year-old third baseman, should be the most attractive position player on the market. He is a plus defender who overcame injury-plagued seasons early in his career to become an MVP candidate this season.
