The Dodgers placed Kershaw on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a bone spur in his left big toe.

Kershaw was forced out of his start Friday against the Diamondbacks in the second inning due to the injury, and manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that the southpaw's toe has swollen to the point where it's hard for him to move around, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Kershaw will now be sidelined until at least Sept. 15, and the Dodgers will bring up Ben Casparius from Triple-A Oklahoma City to provide extra coverage in the bullpen for the time being. The Dodgers haven't announced who will take Kershaw's spot in the starting rotation.
