Torre has named Ethier the starting LF...as a Dodgers fan, I have to say, great call. Ethier is the best pure hitter in the OF bunch...not as much power as Kemp, but good hitter!!!

Does this mean that Kemp and Ethier won't be platooning? :rolleyes:

Kemp will bat third tomorrow, and I think Torre is telling the truth when he says that the line-up will change at first depending on the pitcher. If Kemp hits, it won't be long until he has a top 5 slot full time.
