Kershaw (toe) threw an extended bullpen session Wednesday in Miami, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said the left-hander threw between 80 and 83 pitches in what was Kershaw's first time on a mound since he landed on the 15-day injured list at the end of August with a bone spur in his left big toe. Roberts previously had said it was unlikely Kershaw would make it back before the end of the season, but the fact that Kershaw was able to throw so many pitches in the bullpen session Wednesday suggests the door is ajar for a return next week. Kershaw will likely need to face hitters in live batting practice or a simulated game before getting the green light to return from the IL.
