The Dodgers need Matt Kemp more than ever, but he has struggled since running into the outfield wall at Coors Field a few weeks ago.

With a sore shoulder, Kemp has just five hits in 48 at-bats since the incident. He has struck out 15 times, including three on Saturday night against the Cardinals.

Kemp is batting .114 this month. He's driven in two runs. Of the 133 National League players with at least 25 at-bats in September, Kemp rates 131st in OPS.
