Dodgers News: Clayton Kershaw Frustrated By 'Bad Habits' With Mechanics
Briefly

Clayton Kershaw has returned to the Los Angeles Dodgers after undergoing offseason surgeries, but his performance has been underwhelming, yielding a 4.91 ERA over 11 innings in three starts. Despite a somewhat improved third game, he remains dissatisfied, citing mechanical issues and bad habits formed while dealing with injuries. Kershaw acknowledges needing more reps to regain his form, as the side effects of his injuries have altered his pitching mechanics. He is focused on making necessary adjustments to improve his performance moving forward.
I'm fighting some stuff mechanically and different things. I was able to make a few pitchers here and there to be able to get through five (innings), but obviously wasn't pitching good enough to be able to stay in the game, which makes the bullpen have to throw more innings and sometimes stuff like this happens.
Yeah, there's just some stuff I need to hammer down. I think I created some bad habits. With not feeling my best, I think I created some bad habits last year.
