MLB Roundup 11/1: Clayton Kershaw’s opt-out deadline was extended

Like David Price, Clayton Kershaw had a chance to opt out of his contract with the Dodgers and he had to make his decision by midnight Thursday morning. It’s a really quick turnaround for a player who makes the World Series, and it was a much closer decision for Kershaw than it was for Price. Well, now h’es got a bit more time to figure things out. The pitcher and the team have decided to extend Kershaw’s deadline back to Friday afternoon at 4 PM ET. This would seem to me like good news for anyone who wants Kershaw to stay in Los Angeles.
