Ethier wants a trade if he can't start.

So I guess this begs the question as to whether or not you'd want Crawford or Ethier playing left. I like that Crawford can lead off and feel like he's probably a better hitter, but he isn't too good defensively and Ethier is pretty damn clutch most of the time I've seen him play. On top of that I like Ethier since he's been there forever, but he really sucks versus left handed pitching, so that's a bitch, and it is hard to trade him cause of that contract, but ideally it'd be cool to see him moved and they'd just go with Crawford in left, Puig in right and Joc in center (maybe reverse those last two) with Van Slyke being the fourth outfielder, much better economically and Van Slyke can hit and hit with power, too.

Hopefully they get Ethier's issue resolved so we can stop hearing about it :/. I also hope Pederson pans out. Dude has a huge ass upside considering his minor league numbers but he struck out a lot last year. If he can have a big season that would be very good considering they lost Kemp and he was finally producing.

Seriously haha.

Kershaw takes a ball to the face today but keeps playing apparently.

Hate not being able to watch the games, especially during Spring training when I want to see some of the new guys -- Pederson and Guerrero mainly.

Ryu apparently won't be ready for start of season :/. Beckett retired (old news, but I just found out), so the rotation looks like this -- Kershaw, Greinke, Ryu, then Anderson and McCarthy.

I'm wondering if it is possible they throw out some young guns and give them starts, see if maybe they can find a quality young starter. Hasn't been Mattingly's strategy since he's been there it seems like, opting to go with veterans, even shitty ones, like Blanton, Hernandez, Harang (even though he was solid for them), etc. over younger guys like Fife, Magill, Lee, etc., etc. Team is competing with a window of time for a title so I understand if they don't wanna put games into the hands of unproven starters but I just want to see the team succeed with some local talent where and when possible.

Reds got Magill, which sucks, can't homer the dude from Simi Valley anymore :/.

Oh well, hopefully he gets a shot or two with Cincinnati.
