RISINGClayton Kershaw, LHP: Just give him the MVP already! Kershaw's week was pretty much reminiscent of each of his other weeks. He dominated two opponents and got the Dodgers two games closer to winning the NL West. Seems like what an MVP does, right? Kershaw held the San Diego Padres to a run on three hits Thursday, then held the Arizona Diamondbacks to one unearned run on six hits Wednesday. Combined, he pitched 16 innings with 20 strikeouts.
