Los Angeles has struggled with injuries in 2016 much more than they did in 2015. In 2015 18 players landed on the disabled list through 162 games. So far this season 19 players have landed on the DL and it’s not even the All-Star break yet.
Pederson is expected to make his return to the lineup after the All-Star break. In the meantime the club will try to fill the holes the best they can.
