    The way Kershaw has pitched this year...it's almost a no brainier to go on the other side.

    speaking of a dead arm is his fastball velocity is down 3mph

    he is consistently 92- 93 this season and he was 96 last few years

    from what i interpeted on that chart his maximum velocity is 95mph just like last year but his minimum velocity is slightly up

    but from 87 last year to 90 this year???

    where does it show the average velocity???

    i have watched his starts and i have not seen a single pitch over 94

    maybe the minimum velocity is up bc he is throwing less 2 seam fastballs which also may be why he is getting hit hard this year

    He never was a " fireballer" to begin with. But I think he still knows how to pitch, just a guess.

    yeah he is a very good pitcher i was jk but the fact remains that he hasn't been very Kershaw-esque so far this season.

    we have come to expect better than he has performed.

    He has perhaps the best curve ball in the major leagues. It's just devastating. But what makes him so special is his command and the ability to reach back and throw 96mph mixed with that nasty curve ball.

    when he is on his game you pretty much have to guess right as a hitter.

    Agreed, and it is well known April is always his worst month. Of course now that we are into May we are all expecting the 3 time Cy Young guy to emerge, well some of us are. I am sure he will come arounnd just like Mr. Kluber did.

    This sucks. I started my Martingale the other day and picked the fukking Dodgers. 1st I tried to bet and SBR book was down. They won. Next day they lose. Last night they give up 3 in the 9th to lose. This sucks with that kind of line.

    All of his pitches have been hit more than in previous season. BABIP too high. He will get better. He had a BABIP of way below .300 on all of his pitches last year and this year they all have a BABIP of way over .300.

    LOL he's not heading for Tommy John at all. You clearly have no idea what that even means. He has great mechanics and puts barely any stress on his elbow at all. Dude is having his first "below Clayton Kershaw standard" year and you're acting like this will be the end of him.
