The Dodgers positioning in the playoffs is already decided, which is the primary reason that manager Don Mattingly will let his players call the shots come Sunday.
NL MVP candidate Clayton Kershaw will act as the team’s pitching coach.
Los Angeles will play either the St. Louis Cardinals or Pittsburgh Pirates in the NLDS.
