Clayton Kershaw to begin season on injured list

GLENDALE — Yesterday it was announced that Clayton Kershaw would not be getting the start for the Dodgers on Opening Day, ending his historic eight-year run as the starter. Not only will he be missing game one of the season, but he’ll be starting the season on the injured list.

“I don’t see that happening,” Dave Roberts said when asked if Kershaw would be on the roster. “If he were on the Opening Day roster, he’d be starting.”

With Kershaw officially out, the plan for him is to still face hitters for the first time on Wednesday.
