Don’t be a hero, Andre
Andre Ethier has been the biggest offensive force in the National League, and possible the entire MLB, so far this season.
He’s hitting .392 (1st in MLB), with 11 home runs (1st in NL, 3rd in MLB), and 38 RBIs (1st in MLB).
And now he’s temporarily sidelined with a broken pinkie.
So the big question on every Dodger fan’s mind right now is “How long will he be out?”
The right answer: At least two weeks.
There’s absolutely no reason for him to rush his return. Take the two-week stint on the DL now instead of risking spending a month there later on.
While there may not be anyone in the Dodger lineup who can pick up the slack on their own, there are two guys who can do it together.
So take some time off, Andre.
Matt Kemp and Manny Ramirez will keep your seat warm.
