The Dodgers have told me they are keeping the door open for a Kershaw return and hope he decides to finish his career as a Dodger. I think the signings of Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto will make it easier for him to decide to stay with Los Angeles rather than opting to finish his career with the Rangers, his hometown team, which is the only other realistic option outside of him choosing to retire.
The Dodgers still have a need in the rotation, especially for a left-handed starter. However, Kershaw doesn't exactly fill that hole considering it's unclear when he'll be able to return to the mound.
