DENVER — Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, sidelined since late June with a herniated disk in his back, was moved to the 60-day disabled list on Wednesday.
That means the 28-year-old won’t be able to return until Aug. 27, at the earliest.
Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts said the three-time Cy Young winner hasn’t participated in any baseball activity since he suffered a setback in a simulated game July 16.
“He has not thrown, he has not played catch, he has not picked up a baseball,” Roberts said before the Dodgers faced the Colorado Rockies.
Roberts also said the team hasn’t ruled out the possibility of season-ending surgery for Kershaw
Roberts made it clear, though, that nothing has been set in motion.
