finished with the lowest ERA so no he did not finish like a mid-rotation pitcher
you know what I meant when I said that

He started game 2 vs the Cardinals and then started game 1 vs Phillies in the NLCS.
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
quote:

however, he was their best pitcher that season
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

Exactly the Dodgers may not have thought of him as the #1 and did not put that pressure on him but he was the staff ace that season. The numbers back that up.
He would have have pitched had the Dodgers gone further and been a significant piece.
