News: Kuroda (neck) is sufficiently recovered from his neck injury and will start Game 3 of the NLCS, the Dodgers' official site reports.
Analysis: This would seemingly put him in line for a possible Game 7 as well, though that would likely be an "all hands on deck" start.
Friday, October 02, 2009
News: Kuroda has a herniation of his cervical spine and will not be able to pitch in the NLDS, MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Kuroda was expected to start Game 2 of the NLDS, and the Dodgers remain unsure of who will fill that role. Randy Wolf and Clayton Kershaw are slated to start in the playoffs, while the other two pitchers will come from the group of Chad Billingsley, Jon Garland and Vicente Padilla.
