The Los Angeles Dodgers have had to make two very tough roster decisions this week. First, it was designating longtime catcher Austin Barnes for assignment, while it wasn't a total shocker move, he had been with the team for 11 seasons.

The emergence of infielder Hyeseong Kim made Taylor expendable as part of what Andrew Friedman called "a very emotional week."

Even winning two World Series titles — and delivering in some clutch moments along the way — doesn’t guarantee a roster spot with the Dodgers anymore.
