Clayton Kershaw 'Felt Wanted' In Re-Signing With Dodgers
Briefly

It was a good offseason to kind of be home and talk with Ellen and try to figure everything out. Once we decided to get the surgery and want to play again, that was kind of a process in and of itself, and just kind of did that with Ellen. And then I think over time, I can't say enough good things about Andrew (Friedman) and the way he handled everything, and even ownership, Mark and Todd, all the way down. They just really gave me the time to figure things out. And once I decided to come back, it was just everybody has been great. So I felt wanted, even though I'm kind of damaged goods right now. It was a good feeling.
Kershaw's new deal including a player option gives him some flexibility in the event he hits a snag in getting back on the mound this year. It also would allow for Kershaw to be part of the same starting rotation as Shohei Ohtani next year.
