#Dodgers say Ethier is day-to-day with fractured pinkie. Waiting to see if he can tolerate pain and swing this week. Not bad news. #LA #MLB
Obviously good news. Like I said at MOKM, hopefully it means there was no ligament damage(ie, Orlando Hudson and his wrist, where the bone tore apart his whole wrist) and can avoid surgery. Apparantley, Ethier simply holds the bat a certain way where there was simply too much pressure on the pinkie and a small bone became fractured.
Hopefully, he is out for only the Astro series, but he will most likely miss the next couple of series...

As much as I would love to see him compete on a Triple-Crown basis/level

put him on the DL
let him get it fully rested and healthy….
we need him producing big later on in the season… its still early
I agree that if neccesary, he should go on the DL
Let him get rest and have a rehab assignment… Looking at my predicition above, he could be out for most of the 15 days anyways, so why not get Paul back up?

perfect ballpark to get Either back into the mode of smashing :)
