Anyone have an idea of when Clayton Kershaw gets called up to the majors?

Porcello is also older and playing at a lower level and didn't impress as much in ST

On Kershaw (from ESPN):

"Although there is no word that the Dodgers are "officially" considering it, there are already rumblings that Kershaw could open the season as the team's No. 5 starter, the Dodgers' official web site reports.
Spin: I wouldn't be shocked," pitching coach Rick Honeycutt said of Kershaw opening the season in his rotation. "The stuff is there -- it's electric. His poise is uncanny for his age." We still think Esteban Loaiza is the leading candidate, but there seems little doubt at this point that we'll see Kershaw in Dodger blue at some point this season."

"Kershaw tossed three scoreless, two-hit innings Tuesday in picking up a save against the Marlins.
Spin: Just as important - no walks, and three strikeouts. Kershaw has a 1.29 ERA this spring and though he's most-likely destined for Triple-A, he may not be there long."

"Kershaw had another eye-popping performance Tuesday, striking out six and allowing just one hit over three scoreless innings versus Milwaukee.
Spin: Kershaw still probably opens the year in the minors, but keeping him as the No. 5 starter has probably at least been entertained somewhat. He could be up as soon as there's an injury or once Esteban Loaiza's ERA hits double digits."

"Manager Joe Torre indicated that Kershaw was likely to open the year in Double-A, the Dodgers' official site reports.
Spin: Torre made the comparison to Joba Chamberlain, indiciating that he expected Kershaw to help the club at some point this year."

"Kershaw tossed four scoreless, one-hit innings Sunday against the Red Sox before being sent down to Double-A after the game.
Spin: Kershaw ends the spring having allowed one run in 14 innings. We'll see him in Los Angeles sometime in the near future, perhaps as early as this summer. There's no better pitching prospect in the game."

I'd say that is some pretty high praise.

"He looks like he belongs in major league camp,"



Well, I'm pretty sure Kershaw was in big league camp.



Whatever, I think they're both pretty even, I only got into that because I wanted to hear an answer to my question and not a snide remark.

I thought the quote was saying that he wan't in big league camp and Avila is saying maybe he should be.

Alright.

Since I went to the trouble of finding spring training stats I might as well post them: Kershaw 14 innings, 8 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 19 K, 3 BB, 1 HR

Porcello: 5.2 innings, 3 hits, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 K, 2 BB

For 19 and 20 year olds trying to make MLB rosters I would say ST stats mean something, especially those as good as Kershaw's.
