Taylor went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor made his presence felt with a two-run double in the bottom of the first inning, but he went silent the rest of the way. The second baseman has had his fair share of ups and downs at the plate of late and is hitting just .227 on the month, but he has been a fantasy asset overall this year thanks to 10 homers, seven steals and a respectable .262/.377/.448 slash line.

Taylor is not in the starting lineup Friday against the Cubs, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has played in every game in June, so he'll get a well-deserved rest Friday. Zach McKinstry will start at second base with AJ Pollock, Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts manning the outfield from left to right.

Taylor went 3-for-5 with a double and a run in Tuesday's loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
The utility man started the game at shortstop before shifting to center field when Mookie Betts (illness) departed in the sixth inning. Taylor collected three of the Dodgers' eight hits in the contest -- including their only double -- and scored on a double-play groundout in the eighth inning. He has two multi-hit efforts in his past three games.

Taylor went 2-for-6 with two runs and a stolen base in Sunday's 9-8 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
With Mookie Betts receiving a day off, Taylor took over the leadoff spot and produced a pair of singles. He also scored twice and stole his seventh base of the season. The theft was his first since May 29, and the multi-hit effort was his first since June 11. Taylor is slashing .266/.386/.464 overall this season.

Taylor went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 9-3 win over Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
On the fifth anniversary of the career-altering trade that brought Taylor to the Dodgers from Seattle in exchange for Zach Lee, the utility man produced an eighth-inning two-run homer that pushed Los Angeles' lead to nine runs. Taylor's versatility has brought tremendous value to the club this season, and he has been one of the team's best offensive players with a .264/.387/.468 slash line, 10 homers, 37 RBI and six stolen bases.

Taylor went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 3-1 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor took Spencer Howard deep to lead off the fifth inning and give the Dodgers a 3-1 cushion. The 30-year-old is slashing .275/.389/.475 -- good for a career-high .864 OPS -- with nine home runs, 35 RBI, 48 runs scored and six stolen bases. He also owns a 32:60 BB:K, as he's taking walks at the highest rate of his career while striking out at one of the lowest rates of his career. The utility man should continue to see regular playing time, particularly if Cody Bellinger (hamstring) has to go on the injured list again.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor's streak of nine consecutive starts will come to an end while he heads to the bench for the first time since May 29. The versatile 30-year-old has settled into a regular role at the keystone of late, but he'll cede second base to Zach McKinstry in the series finale at Pittsburgh.

Taylor went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Tuesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor took Chris Stratton deep in the sixth inning to tack on a pair of insurance runs for the Dodgers. The 30-year-old has tallied eight long balls this season while batting a team-leading .274 average as he continues to make his case for a first-time All-Star Game appearance.

Taylor went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run scored and three RBI in Friday's 9-5 win over Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Remarkably, the Dodgers produced that offense on only four hits thanks to eight free passes from Atlanta pitching, with Taylor's bases-loaded two-bagger being the biggest blow in an eight-run fifth inning. The 30-year-old got the start at second base with Cody Bellinger back in the lineup in center field, but Taylor should remain a fixture in the lineup somewhere on the diamond as long as he maintains something close to his current career-high .405 OBP and .888 OPS.

Taylor went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, four RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor entered this game on a poor stretch, having mustered just two hits over his previous five appearances (2-for-16) but bounced back here with one of his best performances of the campaign. The 30-year-old also ended an eight-game drought without a homer and now has seven on the season, meaning he's just one bomb away from tying his total from 2020's shortened campaign.
