At the team blog, Inside the Dodgers, Vice President of Broadcasting and Public Relations Josh Rawitch gives us some details and his thoughts on the move...

Public Enemy #1...That's what Vin Scully called Clayton Kershaw's curveball back in Spring Training and it'll be on display tomorrow at Dodger Stadium in his big league debut. To make room for him, Esteban Loaiza was designated for assignment and Yhency Brazoban was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas...Here's hoping tomorrow's the start of a very special career and tonight is the start of a nice winning streak. More for the park in a bit...

Back in December, in my interview with Dodgers General Manager Ned Colletti, we discussed Kershaw as well...

Speaking of Kershaw, I asked if he would have a chance to make the big league club this spring given his age, or if they would let his work dictate where he winds up.

Absolutely (he’ll get a chance). You see what some young pitchers have done over the past few years, and just because someone is young, it doesn’t mean he can’t handle himself (at the major league level).

And finally, last July, I had the opportunity to speak personally with the lefty phenom. Here's a little clip of an exchange we had...

JH: The Dodgers seem to be content moving you along slowly…as they do with many of their young pitchers. Does that bother you or frustrate you at all?

CK: Ah (pause)…They know what they’re doing better than I do. I can’t argue with them or complain to them. All I can do is pitch. You know…pretty much what it comes down to is that if I don’t give up a lot of runs, I kind of have to force them to move me up if you know what I mean.

And force their hand he has...Good luck Clayton. We're looking forward to watching you!
