The 25-year-old Kershaw leads the majors with 223 innings pitched. The move gives him an extra three days of rest.
Kershaw is 14-9 with an MLB best 1.94 ERA this season. He leads the National League with 214 strikesouts.
Stephen File will pitch for the Dodgers in Arizona on Wednesday. The 26-year-old is 4-3 in nine starts this season.
