Sat Jun 18 201103:07Trent Oeltjen goes hitless in loss
Trent Oeltjen went 0-for-3 and struck out twice in the loss to the Astros on Friday.
The Dodgers probably won't give Oeltjen too long of a look if he doesn't start hitting soon. He's 2-for-11 with five strikeouts and two walks in his three starts. Maybe he'd be OK as a fourth or fifth outfielder, but there isn't a lot of upside here.
