I can see him coming to the ATL with Prado shifting to 3rd full time to take over Chipper’s spot. I don’t necessarily like the move, but I can see it coming.

All too true, unfortunately. He is also moody, and appears to let bad AB’s fester in his brain.

Given his negatives Either is still a solid corner OFer with pop, and I’d say it’s about 50-50 the Dodgers let him walk, given the ownership situation and abundance of corner OFers available in the minors. I’d be sad to see him go, but at 31 LA has already gotten some of his best years.

Unfortunately, injury and Ethier are synonymous with each other, which is why his reputation outstrips his on-field contribution.

Redsox. Especially with Jacoby Ellsbury contract coming up they may need the outfield help.
