RISINGClayton Kershaw, LHP: It looks as if he has fixed most of what ailed him in that strange 1 2/3-inning debacle in Arizona. Kershaw is coming off a start in which he gave up only four hits in eight innings and struck out nine. There is evidence he's still struggling a bit with his curveball and right-handers are hitting .269 and slugging .448 against him, but this is a bit nitpicky. He looks like an ace again and the Dodgers need all the starting pitching they can get the way they're hitting.
