Utley batted leadoff and went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
With both Logan Forsythe and Justin Turner back from the disabled list, Utley was expected to return to the bench to serve as a backup infielder. The role demotion had to wait an extra day after the club decided to give Turner a rest day Saturday. It is poor timing to have the entire Dodger infield healthy, as the 38-year-old seemed to turn back the clock over his previous 15 games, batting .341 with three home runs and eight RBI while filling in at second base. Manager Dave Roberts may be forced to get Utley's bat in the lineup a few times a week going forward, but his fantasy value takes a big hit if he is not seeing regular playing time.
