Taylor is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
On Monday, Taylor received his first start since coming off the injured list Friday, though he had logged four at-bats in a non-starting role over the weekend. The utility man produced the biggest hit of the contest Monday against Baltimore, belting a sixth-inning grand slam that turned a two-run Dodgers deficit into a two-run lead. Taylor started at shortstop before moving to left field late in the game, but Miguel Rojas is starting at shortstop Tuesday while David Peralta is manning left field.

Taylor isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Saturday against the Mets, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite being activated from the injured list ahead of Friday's contest, Taylor still has yet to re-enter the Dodgers' lineup. Mookie Betts will continue to start at second base while Taylor sits, keeping Jason Heyward in right field and batting seventh.

Taylor (knee) was activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
With Miguel Vargas at Triple-A, Taylor should be able to play pretty regularly, at least in the short term. He hit .189 with two home runs and one steal in 37 June at-bats before landing on the shelf. Taylor went 2-for-5 with one home run in two rehab games.

Taylor (knee) shifted his rehab assignment to Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday and went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk while playing seven innings at shortstop.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor was making the second appearance of his rehab assignment, after he initially went 1-for-2 with a walk while playing for the Dodgers' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate Friday. Though the utility player saw action at shortstop Sunday, he could end up settling into a regular role at second base when he's likely activated from the 10-day injured list when the Dodgers reconvene following the All-Star break. The Dodgers have an opening at the keystone after optioning the struggling Miguel Vargas to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Taylor (knee) will be activated off the injured list at the end of the All-Star break, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor hasn't started a game since June 15 and went on the injured list June 25 with a right knee injury. He's been rehabbing at the team's complex in Arizona and played in his first ACL game Friday, going 1-for-2 with a walk. Taylor was 2-for-11 with a homer and four RBI across his last five games prior to landing on the IL.

Taylor (knee) is not expected to return to the field until after the All-Star break, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has been on the injured list due to a bone bruise in his right knee, an injury he suffered back on June 16. He's currently rehabbing at the team's spring training complex in Arizona and is not close to a return.

Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Taylor (knee) is going on the 10-day injured list, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The transaction should be retroactive to a few days ago, which would allow the 32-year-old to be activated as early as next weekend. According to Ardaya, the skipper indicated the bone bruise in Taylor's right knee hasn't gotten any worse since he suffered the injury June 16, but there's also been minimal improvement. Yonny Hernandez was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

Taylor (knee) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Dave Roberts indicated Friday that Taylor could have a chance to rejoin the lineup Sunday, but the utility man will instead be held out of the starting nine for a seventh straight game due to bone bruise in his right knee. The Dodgers have a team day off Monday, and the 32-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Tuesday's series opener versus the Rockies.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters before Friday's game versus the Astros that Taylor (knee) will be limited to bench duties over the next two games before having a chance to return to the lineup Sunday, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has not been able to start since suffering a bone bruise in his right knee last Friday against the Giants. The versatile 32-year-old will be out of the lineup for the next two contests, but it's a positive development that Taylor should be in the starting nine for the Dodgers by the early portion of next week.

Taylor (knee) is not in the starting lineup Friday versus the Astros, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
