Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw (back) will return to the rotation Saturday against the New York Mets.
Kershaw was scheduled to make a rehab appearance for Triple-A on Saturday but heavy rains are in the forecast, so the club decided to pitch at the big league level instead. The ace has been out since May 31 with a lower back strain.
Our models project Kershaw for a 3.91 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 7-4 record with 89 strikeouts in 82 2/3 innings pitched the rest of the season.
