Robleski, who has drawn comparisons to the legendary lefty, credits Kershaw’s approach for his own success on the mound. “They stick to simplicity,” the young pitcher said, referencing the mindset that Kershaw famously maintained throughout his career. By focusing on fundamental execution rather than overcomplicating his game, Robleski has been able to find consistency and effectiveness.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts acknowledged the shared traits between Robleski and Kershaw, highlighting their calm demeanor, pitch sequencing, and ability to trust their stuff. “Justin has that same quiet confidence and simplicity in his delivery,” Roberts said. “It’s something he’s clearly learned from Clayton.”
Robleski’s recent performances have reflected this philosophy, as he has posted strong outings with minimal distraction. The left-hander continues to develop under the shadow of Kershaw’s legacy, aiming to carve out his own path by following the same straightforward principles that made Kershaw a future Hall of Famer.
