on the IL with neck inflammation<\/a>. It was very likely caused by the whiplash he\u2019s endured by tracking all of those line drives whizzing past his ear.<\/p>\nRon Yukelson

Regardless of whether Edwin D\u00edaz ever excels again in his closer role, I wonder if anyone else feels like I do about the trumpets and light show hoopla announcing his entrance from the bullpen? I think not only does it add fuel to an already fired-up visiting team, it also is a slap in the face of the other Dodger relievers, who by the way, all currently have performed far better.<\/p>\n

Edwin D\u00edaz is auditioning for a spot on the postseason roster and the audition is not going well.<\/p>\n

Kyle Tucker\u2019s sub-.240 batting average and the oft-injured Edwin D\u00edaz cost the Dodgers $83 million this year \u2014 more than the entire payrolls of the Marlins and Guardians. No wonder so many fans believe the Dodgers are ruining MLB.<\/p>\n

If Dodgers\u2019 ownership is found to have circumvented the rules, there should be serious consequences. Voiding the fat contracts of Kyle Tucker and Edwin D\u00edaz \u2014 and making them immediate free agents \u2014 would send a strong message from the commissioner\u2019s office that such conduct will not be tolerated.<\/p>\n
