Taylor (neck) said the plan is for him to return to the lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taylor is not in the starting nine for the sixth consecutive game Friday, but it sounds like the utility man is nearing a return to action. While he's tentatively scheduled to play Saturday, the Dodgers will likely be cautious with the utility man during the final two weeks of the season in the hopes of having him at 100 percent for the postseason.
