Kenley Jansen was born on Wednesday, September 30, 1987, in Willemstad, Curacao. Jansen was 22 years old when he broke into the big leagues on July 24, 2010, with the Los Angeles Dodgers. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Kenley Jansen baseball stats page.
"The Dodgers' bullpen is a dizzying array of beards and tattoos, its inhabitants marked by checkered pasts and chips on shoulders. All of which makes Kenley Geronimo Jansen the weirdest one of all. 'You don't have to look like a tough guy,' he said softly. 'When the situation comes up, you just have to be a tough guy.' Jansen, the 6-foot-5, 260-pound closer whose midseason emergence has made a (Yasiel) Puig-like impact on the pitching staff, takes the mound looking like a giant kid in his pajamas. His giant arms have no tattoos. His whispery voice has no edge. His soft eyes are wide and wandering. He doesn't drink. He doesn't party. He is 25 years old and still lives with his parents, both in his hometown on the southern Caribbean island of Curacao and when they visit for long stretches in Los Angeles." - Bill Plaschke in The Los Angeles Times (09/11/2013, No man is an island, especially Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen, Source)
