GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed pitcher Clayton Kershaw to a one-year deal worth $500,000.
The left-hander has been named the opening day starter against the San Francisco Giants on March 31.
Kershaw earned $440,000 last season, when he went 13-10 with a 2.91 ERA and 212 strikeouts in 204 1-3 innings.
Also on Wednesday, the Dodgers signed 17 other players to one-year deals.
Right-handed reliever Ronald Belisario was placed on the restricted list. He has failed to appear at spring training, apparently because of passport problems in his native Venezuela. He reported a month late last season.
