| Andre Ethier on a roll lately |
by Nando Di Fino | Senior Fantasy Writer (6/17/13) It's not the kind of stretch that makes you slap your forehead and swear off the game of Fantasy for dropping him, but Andre Ethier has put together a recent run that may give his 60 percent ownership a little bump.
In his last five games, Ethier is hitting .450 with a double, home run and 1.126 OPS. In Points formats, he put up a season-best 22 points in Week 11.
While it may be tough to make a case for adding Ethier universally, he does have four seasons of 20-plus home runs in his last five, and sports a career .288 average. Even with rumors of a trade, Ethier will likely find his way into a full-time role with his hypothetical new team. But, for now, he'll start until Matt Kemp and Carl Crawford return, and their timetables are still/always in flux. Once the Dodgers get everyone healthy, I doubt Ethier will just be outright benched, especially if he continues to turn his season around (Yasiel Puig will likely take away some time from everyone).
As of now, with two injured outfielders still slow to come back, Ethier is rosterable in 12-team Roto leagues and deeper.

| Andre Ethier held out with sore foot |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (6/9/13) Dodgers outfielder Andre Ethier was out of the lineup Sunday against the Braves after fouling a pitch off his foot in a fourth-inning strikeout in Saturday's 2-1 loss.
Eithier is also 0 for 6 in his career against Sunday's starter Mike Minor.
"He just hasn't been as consistent as we're used to seeing out of him and I know that concerns him, and concerns us also," manager Don Mattingly said to MLB.com. "We're trying to get him back to his old self."

| Dodgers would have to pay to trade Andre Ethier |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (6/4/13) If the Dodgers plan to trade Andre Ethier, CBSSports.com Baseball Insider Jon Heyman reports Tuesday the team will likely need to take on at least half of at least $69 million remaining on his contract.
"No one's untradeable if the team eats enough of the money,'' an anonymous general manager told Heyman. "I bet they'd have to eat half.''
Talk of trading Ethier comes on the heals of the promotion of top prospect Yasiel Puig, as well as an underwhelming year of play by Ethier. Ethier has a .728 OPS with just 15 home runs in 538 at-bats over the last calendar year, including just a .686 OPS this season.
At this point, there is no indication the team is looking to trade Ethier, but he has found himself on the wrong side of manager Don Mattingly already this season.

| Judging by his final numbers last year, Andre Ethier appeared to bounce back from a disappointing 2011 in which a knee injury sapped him of his power. But if you owned him in Fantasy, you probably came away disappointed. That's because 11 of his 20 homers came in April and September, leaving only nine for that four-month period in the middle, when the contenders separate themselves from the pretenders in Head-to-Head leagues. He was the Fantasy equivalent of fool's gold, coming in a bright, shiny package but delivering little actual value. So was it an isolated event? Judging by his recent track record, not really. In terms of perception, he's basically been living off his 31-homer, 106-RBI season in 2009. He hasn't had more than 23 homers or 89 RBI in a season since then. Given the letdown of his "rebound" season, though, the perception appears to be changing. Once an assured top-20 outfielder on Draft Day, Ethier is liable to drop outside the top 30 now that Fantasy owners are beginning to realize he doesn't bring much more to the table than 20-plus homers and 30-plus doubles. That player still has value, of course, but he's in a lower tier, belonging more with Nick Swisher than, say, Shin-Soo Choo. (Updated 12/4/12) |
