Last year, his HR/FB bounced back to normal, but he continued to burn worms at an elevated rate, capping his power potential. Ethier also is notoriously weak against southpaws, as evidenced by his 2012 OPS of .606 versus lefties as opposed to .945 against righties. In fact, at the end of last season, Dodgers skipper Don Mattingly intimated Ethier might see more pine time against left-handers this season. Although this is still conjecture, it is plausible enough to drop Ethier down a peg or two in your ranks.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":0.1,"playerRater15DAY":0.7,"positionRank":89}
