Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw: Dominant heading into regular season
Kershaw was in mid-season form Thursday, tossing six shutout innings while striking out 11 batters in a win over the Rangers.
Analysis:
Sure, spring training stats don't count towards anything, but Kershaw's fantasy owners have to feel good about their fantasy ace's dominant showing this spring (2.14 ERA with 28 strikeouts over 21 innings). The 29-year-old looks to be completely past the back troubles that cost him a couple months of action last season. When healthy, every aspect of Kershaw's game point to him being the best pitcher in fantasy.
