Clayton Kershaw Is ‘Nearing’ New Deal With Dodgers, per Report

Pitcher Clayton Kershaw is reportedly close to reaching a one-year deal with the Dodgers, sources told The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal on Thursday.

The three-time Cy Young Award winner has played his entire 15-year career with the Dodgers. If the deal is reached, then Kershaw will spend at least one more year in Los Angeles.

Kershaw signed a one-year deal ahead of the 2022 season back in March, and it ended up working in the Dodgers’ favor. That contract was worth $17 million, but it’s unknown what his potential 2023 contract will be worth.
