Clayton Kershaw Hits Incentives, Secures $16M Dodgers Payday

Kershaw reached all contract bonuses, boosting his $7.5M base to $16M. He earned $1M for each of his last four starts plus $4.5M for 90 active days. Now 8-2 with a 3.13 ERA, the Dodgers ace has reinvented himself with a slider-heavy approach. Once close to retiring, he’s proving as invaluable as ever in Los Angeles amidst their postseason push.
