Kershaw is being heavily pursued by NBC, the studio network that was named the new home of \u201cSunday Night Baseball\u201d and the first round of the MLB playoffs for the 2026 season.<\/p>\n
The Athletic\u2019s Andrew Marchand<\/a> revealed the latest on NBC\u2019s interest in the future of Hall of Famer: \u201cKershaw, who retired after the Dodgers\u2019 latest World Series title, would likely work select events if a deal comes to fruition, the sources said.\u201d<\/p>\n Kershaw has been vocal about his post-retirement plans as he and his wife, Ellen, welcomed their fifth child last month.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m on the no plan, plan,\u201d Kershaw said to Dodger Insider<\/a> back in November. \u201cI really don\u2019t know what the next year, two years, five years looks like, which is kind of scary. But it\u2019s kind of a good thing, too. I\u2019m excited not to have a schedule, not to have a routine. Never do an arm band again for the rest of my life. Never try to throw a weighted ball to throw harder again. So there\u2019s a lot of things that I\u2019m looking forward to.\u201d<\/p>\n The future Hall of Famer may not be out of work for long if he agrees to be an analyst on NBC\/Peacock for \u201cSunday Night Baseball.\u201d<\/p>\n The 37-year-old said goodbye to the game of baseball as a World Series champion, earning the third ring of his storied career. Kershaw retired after 18 seasons with the Dodgers, winning three Cy Young awards and making 11 All-Star appearances.<\/p>\n Kershaw finished his career with a 223-96 record and a 2.53 ERA. He eclipsed 3,000 career strikeouts during the 2025 season, becoming just the fourth left-hander in MLB history to do so.<\/p>\n Now, the Dodgers legend could take his talents to the television.<\/p>\n Would you like to see Kershaw in the booth?
