MLB Note - Los Angeles Dodgers Maeda, Kenta

Oct 16, 2017 - 5:29 AM RHP Kenta Maeda has two victories in the postseason, including in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series against the Cubs. Both wins, though, have come out of the bullpen for Maeda, normally a starter. "Each guy has a specific role or part of the lineup that we target," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "The confidence that we have in Kenta, obviously, that's validated some things, the move (to the bullpen), and kind of heightened his confidence. But to have him in a certain three-hitters spot, and even also to give us length, is a luxury."
