Dodgers Nation Week In Review: August 11 — 17
[new_royalslider id=”15″]
The Los Angeles Dodgers went 3-4 over the last week while facing the Atlanta Braves and Milwaukee Brewers. The team’s nine-game road trip came to end with the Dodgers taking three of four games in Atlanta. Unfortunately, a return home resulted in the Brewers completing a three-game sweep of the Boys in Blue.
To make matters worse for the Dodgers, Hyun-Jin Ryu and Juan Uribe saw themselves fall to the injury bug once again and as a result, were both placed on the disabled list. With six weeks remaining in the regular season, the timing is inconvenient, but manager Don Mattingly remains optimistic and comfortable with the rest of the lineup.
