I should point out that during week 2 (Dodgers won their first 6 home games), the coveted TBLA “Batter of the Week” went to Hudson over Ethier:

O-Dog: .542/.621/.875, one cycle
Andre: .391/.464/1.000, two multi-HR games

I'd be willing to bet that Andre after that hot streak at home

will have the worse OPS of the starters on the road trip.

Nah

I can’t say worst; I think Andre’s bat helps overcome some of the tough pitching we will face this week.

Mostly RHP

so hopefully he can help but his road splits are very discouraging.

I think a lot of his road woes were a result of bad luck….246 BABIP on the road.

I’m not sure if his LD% is any different at home or on the road, though.
