Dodgers’ Veterans Becoming More Familiar With Postseason Roles

Chase Utley

It seems like Chase Utley has an irreplaceable role, and in no way will budge from the playoff roster. You can call him ‘Old Man Utley’, but you would be putting the age label on his capabilities. Michael Wittman explains why the “Silver Fox” should have more of a regular role at second base for Los Angeles.

Chase Utley still is The Man, and he will still be playing a crucial role as a seasoned veteran on this ball club. He still finds a way to contribute to every game he plays, and while he will likely be limited to platoon, pinch-hitting and defensive replacement roles, Chase will also be counted on for his presence.

He adds a very crucial component to a playoff team – that being a World Series Champion – as well as everything that comes with a pure winner.

The Los Angeles Dodgers should have no doubts when it comes to keeping their composure in the postseason. And if there are any doubts, just chat with the Silver Fox, he will definitely help out.
