Clayton Kershaw injury Update: Dodgers Pitcher Set for Saisondeubüt on Saturday against Angels

The Los Angeles Dodgers get their longest player back this weekend. Lefty Clayton Kershaw will be activated by the injured list and start on Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels at the Dodger Stadium, the team said on Tuesday. This is the first day on which Kershaw is switched off by the 60-day injury list.

The 37 -year -old Kershaw had won the World Series last autumn shortly after the Dodgers won the World Series and has not yet taken up this season. He did five Minor League rehabilitation starts, including two runs in four Innerings in a Triple-A game on Sunday. In his five rehab games, Kershaw gave up six runs in 21 innings. He beat 16 and went five.

Kershaw's fastball was sitting for what it is worth during his rehab games in the upper 80s. Statcast says that his heating has an average of 87.7 miles per hour and on Sunday by 89.1 miles per hour. After an average fastball of 89.9 miles per hour, this dropped in seven big league starts last year. Adrenaline will certainly start at the Kershaw 2025 debut, although his error rate is quite small at this speed.

This includes Kershaw, the Dodgers currently have eight start jugs on the Mastroy League injured list. Your rotation depth is currently here:

1. RHP Shohei Ohtani (Rehabilitation from elbow surgery)
2. Rhp yoshinobu yamamoto
3. LHP Blake Snell (with shoulder inflammation out)
4. RHP Tyler Glasnow (with shoulder inflammation out)
5. LHP Clayton Kershaw (Will give the Saison debut on Saturday)
6. RhP Roki Sasaki
7. RHP Dustin Mai
8. RhP Tony Gonsolin
9. RhP Gavin Stone (Will miss shoulder surgery in 2025)
10. RHP Landon Knack
11. RHP Bobby Miller
12. LHP Justin Wrobleski
13. RHP River Ryan (will miss Tommy John Operation in 2025)
14. RHP Emmet Shehan (Will miss most of 2025 with Tommy John Operation)
15. Rhp kyle injured (Will miss most of 2025 with Tommy John Operation)

Glasnow thrown again last week and was able to throw this home stand a bullpen, said Roberts on Tuesday. Snell should meet with his doctor on Tuesday and bring the Dodgers to ohtani very slowly. He continues to throw a hill off But there is no fixed schedule for him to confront the rackets and to put it in any kind of game setting.

Despite a salary statement that increases 400 million US dollars, the Dodgers used 11 different start jugs in 41 games. No team used. That is at least partially according to design. The Dodgers almost use the regular season as a rotation. Their priority is to go in the best position in October, so that all their pitching decisions are made with the overall picture.

Kershaw only made seven starts for shoulder problems last season. The three-time Cy Young winner sits on 2,968 career strikes and puts him shortly before the 20th pitcher in the 3,000 strikeout club and only the fourth left together with Hall of Famers Randy Johnson, Steve Carlton and CC Sabathia.

The Dodgers appear on Tuesday with Baseball's best record with 27-14.
