Dodger record in May 12 wins 7 losses

Dodger overall record, 24 wins 18 loses,  tied for 2nd place, two games behind Rockies

Three regular players with an OPS over 1.000,  2/3 of the way through May. No wonder the Dodgers have a great record in May.

Offense looks to be held down by Seager / Joc / Puig. Can’t really count Adrian since he just got back and has looked very good since taking the time off to heal his wounds.  Even Seager and Puig have an OPS over .700 so not exactly hurting the team, just not helping it.  Joc was hurting the team but maybe with his jack yesterday he is ready to go on a tear.

Everything has already been said about Taylor and Bellinger. I guess what really stands out are the fifteen walks by Taylor. Hmmm, wonder how that stacks up on the May LAD Walk leaderboard?

Kind of easy to see why Brett Eibner is on the current roster and SVS is in AAA. Though Brett probably won’t see another game, as I’m sure he’ll be sent down when Logan Forsythe is activated tomorrow.
