Former BYU third baseman Brandon Taylor signed Monday with the Los Angeles Dodgers and has been assigned to the Great Lakes Loons (single A) farm team in Michigan.
Taylor, who will be playing shortstop, signed after his junior year at BYU with the Chicago Cubs as a 17th-round draft. The Orem native played this past month with the St. George Roadrunners in Utah, where he batted .409 in 31 games with 52 hits and 14 homers for the Roadrunners.
