Kenley Jansen (undisclosed) expected to join Dodgers 'soon'
Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen (undisclosed) is expected to arrive to summer camp "soon," per Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.
The reason for Jansen's absence is unknown to the public. Roberts isn't concerned about Jansen's availability for Opening Day. “He’s been moving around and so I think he’ll be ready,” said Roberts. “Obviously, every day on the calendar that we don’t see him, certainly it makes it a little more difficult. But I’m still confident we have enough time." Jansen recorded a 3.71 ERA and 1.06 WHIP with 80 strikeouts and 16 walks over 63 innings last year while earning 33 saves. Pedro Baez is probably next man up for closing duties, but he also hasn't reported yet.
numberFire's models currently project Jansen for a 4.01 ERA and 0.97 WHIP with 33 strikeouts, 6 walks, and 14 saves across 24 2/3 innings this season.
