One of the hardest hit areas of the Los Angeles Dodgers roster by injury this season has been their starting rotation, where the likes of Clayton Kershaw, Tony Gonsolin, Danny Duffy and Dustin May having been sidelined for various lengths of time.
Kershaw, out since July 7 due to left forearm inflammation, appeared to be making progress toward a return before being shut down two weeks ago with lingering elbow soreness. It prevented him from facing batters a second time in five days at the start of August.
The left-hander was transferred to the 60-day injured list as a paper move and now isn’t eligible to be reinstated until Sept.
