        He's 16-2 this year with a sub-2 ERA. He has 142 career wins and >2,000Ks, with an ERA of 2.34 and a WHIP of .996 2/

        Kershaw has a legit shot at 300 wins and 4,000Ks. He's won three Cy Young awards, and he's only 29. 3/

        Koufax, who was 30 in his last season, racked up 165 wins, a 2.76 ERA, 2,396 Ks and and 1.1 WHIP. The stats are very comparable. 4/

        But where there's an edge, it's to Kershaw on not giving up baserunners and runs, and to Koufax on Wins and Ks 5/

        To me, Kershaw, who may win a 4th Cy Young award this year, is the best Dodger hurler ever already. 6/

        There's no reason to think he won't pitch for a lot longer than Koufax did, and his stuff doesn't seem to be leaving him 7/

        Doesn't Koufax World Series record tilt the scale a whole bunch here?https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/koufasa01.shtml …

        Why would it? Because Kershaw has done poorly in the World Series?

        And you are annually incorrect. I'll take Sandy Koufax and his 27 wins and 1.73 ERA in 1966.

        He has the potential to finish his career as 4th best pitcher of all time, if he stays healthy. (Cy Young, Walter Johnson, Roger Clemens)

        His career could end today and I'd say he's a Hall of Famer.
