LA Dodgers' Andre Ethier still healing from injury

PHOENIX >> Just short of four months after he fouled a ball off his right shin during a spring training game, the spiral fracture in Andre Ethier’s tibia is still not fully healed.

Ethier underwent another scan on the injured tibia Friday in hopes of getting clearance to increase his workout activities with an eye toward rejoining the Dodgers in mid-August. That is on hold now after the scan showed “the fracture has not completely healed,” according to Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.

Roberts said the plan now is for Ethier to continue his workouts but “ramp up” as much as he can, based on how much pain it causes him.
