Ethier Gets Dissed Again

[StringerBell]

Man, I just dont get it. Ethier practically carried the team two weeks ago, and now , just `cause Pierre and Jones are "healthy" he`s riding pine once again. His stats are nearly identical to Kemp (except in the steals dept.)
I thought Torre finally hit on a potent Line-Up, batting Kemp,Ethier,Martin 1-2-3. With Pierre back doesnt Pierre-Ethier-Martin-Kemp look real good? Someones just gotta swallow the Andruw Jones debacle and move on for the good of the team.

I agree the situation is fustrating

i agree their OF is very, very frustrating...at least it helps ethier's chances of getting playing time now that delwyn young went on the DL. still ethier will continue to take a backseat to kemp, jones, and pierre. no matter how bad they suck (exclude kemp) because of their paychecks...they are going to play. ethier shouldn't be owned in any nonkeeper leagues. in keeper leagues he is borderline cuttable because unless jones, pierre, or kemp go down with an injury he's only going to get 1-2 starts per week.

Torre doesn't like Ethier vs lefties. That's why he's been out.

May be, but I don't like Andruw Jones against righties or lefties.
