Dodgers 20-year-old phenom Clayton Kershaw, a lefthanded pitcher, was removed from his Double-A start yesterday after one inning fueling speculation that he could be on his way to the major leagues. The Dodgers will need a fifth starter on Tuesday or the Dodgers could pitch him on Saturday to give Brad Penny an extra day of rest.
Kershaw has received very little run support at Double-A Jacksonville which is why he is 0-3. In 43 1/3 innings, he has a 2.28 ERA, 47 strikeouts, 15 walks and a .202 batting average against.

I cant wait for Kershaw to show what he's a got... A Plus-Heater with the dirtiest left handed Curve ball in the game.... I just hope the Dodgers give him some run support unlike what he's been getting all year in Jacksonville...
If Kershaw was apart of the Mets system we would have traded him for Carlos Silva already... What do you think about that ARon??
Looks like the new news about Kershaw is that the Dodgers plan to start him on Sunday.
