His ability in on field is simply second to none, he's got the tools to be an All-Star in any position. His $700m contract is reflective of that.

Part of his deal with New Balance for his glove included 60,000 gloves being sent to 20,000 schools in Japan for students to use.
He is fair dinkum the nicest bloke in world sports.

His predecessor at the Dodgers is a nice bloke, too. Kershaw and his wife have done a ton of humanitarian work in the US & Africa - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clayton_K ... arian_work

We've scored 45 runs and let in 116. Of runs for the next worst, the Cardinals, have scored 76.
