Dodgers leave closer Kimbrel off NLDS roster vs. Padres
LOS ANGELES — (AP) — Veteran closer Craig Kimbrel has been left off the Los Angeles Dodgers’ roster for their National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres. Kimbrel was 6-7 with 22 saves in his first season in Los Angeles, where fans booed him at times. The 34-year-old Kimbrel is an eight-time All-Star who leads active pitchers in saves with 394 — three more than Jansen. But the Dodgers have plenty of depth in their bullpen and included 13 pitchers on their roster, with Dustin May and Blake Treinen among them. There were no surprises among the 13 position players named to the Dodgers' roster.
