After two months of being sidelined by an issue with his forearm, Clayton Kershaw is finally returning to the Los Angeles Dodgers starting rotation.
On Monday, the owner of Public Enemy Number One was reinstated to the Dodgers active 40-man roster from the 60-day Injured List. In the corresponding move, outfielder Steven Souza Jr was designated for assignment, for the second time this season.
When Kershaw was originally shut down with forearm tightness back in July, fans wondered if he would ever pitch for the Dodgers again. The issue could have been severe, leading to the dreaded Tommy John surgery.
