Clayton Kershaw's Extended Absence: Dodgers' Early August Return Plan

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw will miss "a few weeks" due to inflammation in his left shoulder, with a return to the rotation expected in early August. Kershaw, who has been a key player for the Dodgers this season, received a cortisone injection and was placed on the injured list on July 3. In addition, the Dodgers have signed outfielder Jake Marisnick, who was recently designated for assignment by the Detroit Tigers. Marisnick is open to discussing the 2017 sign-stealing scandal with his new teammates.
