Kershaw (back) is expected to make a minor league rehab start, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Manager Dave Roberts refused to tip his hand initially after Kershaw completed a two-inning simulated game Tuesday, but he ultimately acknowledged that Kershaw will likely need a start on the minor league side to prepare for a return to the major league rotation. President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman later confirmed that the next step for Kershaw would be a minor league game. With that, it seems Kershaw is on track for a return late next week.
