Per multiple reports out of Arizona, Andre Ethier has a mildly herniated disk and will be held out of baseball activities for the next 10 days. This is obviously discouraging news for Ethier who has been tearing the cover off the ball this spring.
This injury is the same injury that held Clayton Kershaw out for two and a half months last season. While Dave Roberts said the injury isn’t as severe as Kershaw’s injury, it seems like a long shot for Ethier to make the opening day lineup in likes of this injury.
