Clayton Kershaw will be in Dodger Blue at least for three more years. On Friday, the team announced that they had re-signed their homegrown, multi Cy Young winning pitcher to a one-year extension in addition to the two years remaining on his current contract.
Kershaw had the choice to opt out of the remaining two years in his existing contract, testing the free market, or opting in for an AAV salary of $32.5M and staying with the Dodgers. He and the Dodgers agreed on three years, $93M contract with no opt-outs. This basically adds one year to his current contract at the same value, plus added incentives.
