Kenley Jansen gave up a hit and a walk but kept the Dodgers scoreless over an inning of scoreless relief Friday.
Kenley Jansen took a loss after giving up a two-run homer in a tie game Tuesday against the Padres.
The struggling Jansen walked Elias Díaz and then gave up a game-ending homer to Fernando Tatis Jr. He’s still a perfect 7-for-7 in save chances this season, but he’s given up four homers and eight runs this month. That said, his closing gig is probably safe until he blows at least one save. It’s not like the Angels have anyone else they want to take over with Ben Joyce on the IL.
Kenley Jansen (illness) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Blue Jays.
Jansen was feeling under the weather and was unavailable on Tuesday night. The Angels were fortunate that a save situation didn’t arise during that contest. It sounds like the 37-year-old veteran stopper will be ready to answer the bell, if needed, during Wednesday’s showdown in Los Angeles. It would most likely be Ryan Zeferjahn filling in, if needed, in the event that Jansen can’t go.
Kenley Jansen picked up a save with a scoreless ninth against the Pirates on Thursday.
