The left-hander threw 96 of his 132 pitches for strikes and was pulled after giving up a two-out single to Adam LaRoche in the ninth. He lowered his ERA to 1.40. Kershaw also walked one while earning his fourth win. The 25-year-old has gone 2-0 with a 0.59 ERA in his previous four starts. His next start is scheduled for Monday against the Brewers.

News
The Dodgers will give Andre Ethier a day off Friday against the Braves, in order to give the veteran a day to rest. Manager Don Mattingly explained his decision to the Los Angeles Times by noting Ethier has played in all but one of the team's games and can get two days off in a row with the team not playing Thursday. Ethier's play has not indicated that he is struggling with his conditioning, as he is batting .500 over the last five games. Still, the team wants to keep he 31-year-old healthy for the long season. "The [body] language tells you kind of where he's at. And then you see it on the field in his energy level," Mattingly said. "You can kind of feel it with guys."

Injuries
Back, neck - 15-day DL. On Class A rehab assignment (Updated - 5/16/13)
News
Dodgers pitcher Ted Lilly, who has been sidelined since April 29 with a strained rib cage, told the Los Angeles Times that he is ready to come off the disabled list. Lilly pitched five innings in his latest minor-league rehab start for Class A Rancho Cucamonga Wednesday. He reported no signs of trouble with his rib cage after Wednesday's outing. He has accompanied the Dodgers on a six-game road trip, starting Friday at Atlanta. Lilly is expected to pitch a bullpen session Friday before the team makes its next move. If he does not need a second rehab start, he would likely return to the rotation as early as May 25 when the Dodgers return home to play a three-game series against the Cardinals.

After missing time due to a broken collarbone, he allowed one run on five hits over 5 1/3 innings in a 3-1 win. The right-hander surrendered a solo home run to Adam LaRoche in the fourth for his lone damage. He was done after throwing 83 pitches, 50 for strikes. Greinke also struck out four with no walks while running his record to 2-0. His next start is scheduled for Tuesday against his former team -- the Brewers.

He finished 2 for 4 with two runs scored and two RBI in an 8-5 defeat. Van Slyke has homered twice in his last four games. He has gone 4 for 11 with two homers and four RBI during that span.

News
Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp hasn't hit as expected this season, but he's starting to feel strong at the plate, according to the Los Angeles Times. Kemp has a .282 average but has hit just one home run. He's been hitting the ball hard recently. "But I’m feeling a lot better at the plate," Kemp said. "Those are good signs coming." Manager Don Mattingly agreed, saying "I think Matt is kind of out of his early season [funk]. I think we can kind of say, 'Hey, Matt is swinging the bat pretty good.' Now until obviously he hits some homers, he’s going to continue to get those questions." Kemp is on a 14-game hitting streak. His only home run came April 24.

News
Dodgers infielder Jerry Hairston, who is on the disabled list with knee and groin issues, had a setback with his recovery, the Los Angeles Daily News reports. According to manager Don Mattingly, Hairston had "a little bit of a setback." Hairston likely won't be activated from the disabled list next week, when eligible.

News
Dodgers pitcher Hyun-Jin Ryu endured some command issues as he failed to factor into the decision in Friday's contest against the Braves. Ryu, who made his ninth start of the season, surrendered two runs in the second, including a run-scoring single to Freddy Freeman. He was charged with two runs and five hits over five innings of work. He walked a season-high five and struck out five in an 8-5 defeat. Ryu has allowed just three runs over his last 11 2/3 innings of work. He has watched his ERA shrink from 3.71 to 3.42 over his last two starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday at Milwaukee.

	Kenley Jansen, #74

News
Between Brandon League's struggles and Kenley Jansen's successful conversion of a save opportunity Tuesday, the Dodgers officially have a closer controversy. With manager Don Mattingly's decision to use Jansen even though League was available, Fantasy owners have more reason to doubt the skipper's commitment to keeping League in the ninth-inning role. When League appeared to be uncontested as the closer, Fantasy owners were taking a risk in rostering Jansen, even though he has a decidedly better statistical profile for the job. Now that there is even a sliver of doubt around League's status, it's time to pounce on Jansen in the many leagues where he is still on waivers. Given a chance to close out games, Jansen is highly likely to pitch so well that Mattingly won't put him back in a setup role. With regular save opportunities, Jansen would be an across-the-board contributor (aside from wins) who would rank among the top three closers in Fantasy for the rest of the season.
