All eight of Ethier's homers have come off right-handers, and of Ethier's 17 extra-base hits, only one, a double, has come off left-handed hitting. As the Dodgers get healthier, Ethier's platoon will only get stricter, but he continues to mash righties.
Sat Jun 6 201519:04Ethier out of lineup Saturday against Cardinals
Ethier is out of the lineup Saturday against the Cardinals.
Yasiel Puig was activated from the DL on Saturday, but Ethier's absence likely has more to do with the lefty (Jaime Garcia) that's on the mound for St. Louis.

Ethier is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Braves.
With lefty Alex Wood due up for Atlanta, manager Don Mattingly will sit Ethier down following five straight starts and slot Chris Heisey in as his right fielder. The Dodgers haven't really missed a beat since Yasiel Puig (hamstring) hit the DL thanks in large part to Ethier, who is batting .311/.403/.546 in 139 plate appearances this season. He is 6-for-19 against lefties, but Ethier's exposure to lefties figures to remain limited.

Ethier kicked off a three-homer eighth-inning for the Dodgers with his sixth jack of the season in Monday's win over the Braves.
Alex Guerrero and Jimmy Rollins followed Ethier up with homers of their own, will all of the blasts coming off Braves lefty Nick Masset. In addition, Ethier singled earlier in the game and collected another RBI on a bases-loaded walk in the first inning to continue his resurgent campaign. Though his .313/.407/.548 batting line has made him a more-than-adequate replacement for Yasiel Puig (hamstring) in right field, Ethier's underwhelming production the past two seasons and sizable contact likely won't be overlooked if the Dodgers attempt to peddle him to other suitors.
Thu May 21 201512:47Ethier out of lineup Thursday
Ethier is out of the lineup Thursday, Dodgers reporter Alanna Rizzo reports.
It would have been a tough matchup for Ethier with lefty Madison Bumgarner on the mound for the Giants, so southpaw-killer Scott Van Slyke will get the start in right field Thursday.

Ethier has started seven of the past eight games and has thrived with additional playing time, as he's batting a cool .321/.426/.625.
With Carl Crawford seemingly out for a while with a torn oblique, Ethier should play every day in left field, particularly against RHP. He is 4-for-9 versus southpaws however, so he could see time against them as well.
Tue Apr 28 201519:13Ethier not in lineup Tuesday against Giants
Ethier is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Giants, Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Ethier has been unable to solve Tuesday's starter Madison Bumgarner to this point in his career (3-for-24 with nine strikeouts), so it comes as no surprise that he's out of the lineup. Manager Don Mattingly will go with an all right-handed-batting outfield consisting of Alex Guerrero, Scott Van Slyke and Enrique Hernandez.
