Since getting off dairy products after last season, Clayton Kershaw has seen no flareup of his back issues and every game he has started he puts up at least 6 innings… or more. Simply put, Clayton is still the Dodger’s Ace, even if Hyun-jin Ryu wins the Cy Young Award. He is now 11-2 and has a 2.77 ERA to go with a 1.04 WHIP.
He’s the amazing part: His career ERA is 2.41 and his career WHIP is 1.01 – that’s otherworldly after 11 years. Everyone says that Sandy Koufax was better, but he wasn’t better for his career.
