For years, Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw has represented the best in Major League Baseball. He’s won three National League Cy Young Awards, one MVP and has made seven consecutive All-Star teams. And, come next winter, he could drastically impact the hierarchy of power in the NL – including the Chicago Cubs.
Kershaw, who turns 30 in March, has an opt-out clause in his contract at the conclusion of the 2018 season. Since the Dodgers took him with the seventh-overall pick in the 2006 MLB Draft, the lefty has been one of the game’s biggest stars.
