Glad to Be Wrong: Ethier Is Starting LF

Congrats, Andre! From Tony Jackson:

Joe Torre broke the news to Juan Pierre this morning. "He just said 'OK,' but I know he is disappointed, and that's fine," Torre said. "You don't want a guy sitting on your bench who just accepts being on the bench." Torre said JP will be a regular bench player, pinch hitting, etc. "Before it's all said and done, we're going to get contributions from a lot of people," Torre said.

Joe Torre makes his first controversial decision, and it's the right one. Things are looking up after the Dodgers' dismal spring training.

Man, if he didn't start Andre, I would have been pretty pissed off. I think this is the right decision, let the kids play!
