Kershaw finished like he was a mid of the rotation pitcher
He finished with the lowest ERA so no he did not finish like a mid-rotation pitcher.

Kershaw wouldn't have started a one game playoff in 2009 like Arrieta did last year.
Mainly because they didn't have the 1 game playoff. However, had they started Wolf in that Kershaw would have started the 1st game of the following series. He started game 2 vs the Cardinals and then started game 1 vs Phillies in the NLCS.

Dodgers have faith in him, Kershaw also wasn't almost 30 like Arrieta going into a 1 game playoff, however, he was their best pitcher that season.

you know what I meant when I said that

right. We didnt try to align our rotation so Kershaw would pitch game 1, like we would do now, and then we passed on him in an elimination game when he was on a full 5 days rest

I have said that multiple times, but for whatever reason that wasn't his role

Eta: I take my comment about rotation alignment back. I remember that we had the division clinched by our final series against the Rockies but we hadn't
