Dodgers fans got great news on Thursday evening when a report dropped saying that the team and free agent ace Clayton Kershaw were nearing an agreement on a one year contract. For the second straight offseason, Kersh was on the open market with rumors tying him to his hometown Texas Rangers.
Thankfully for fans in LA, the stress didn’t last as long as last winter.
Kershaw’s return is an absolute win for the Dodgers on several levels.
You’re bringing back a franchise icon.
You need starting pitching help for next season.
The idea of Clayton in another uniform feels like nightmare fuel.
