With Ricky Nolasco being announced as the Dodgers' starting pitcher for Game 4 of the National League Division Series against the Braves, Clayton Kershaw won't need to be used on short rest to make that start.
The Dodgers had considered naming Kershaw as their starter for Monday's Game 4, but now his next start will likely either come in a deciding Game 5, or with a Game 4 victory, in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series.
