Andre Ethier’s Fractured Tibia Could Open Door For Trayce Thompson

By now you have all heard the news. The results of Andre Ethier’s bone scan have been announced and it’s not good. The official diagnosis is a fractured tibia which will keep Ethier out for the next 10-14 weeks. We knew it was probably not going to be good news when we heard that Ethier was on crutches and having to undergo the bone scan. Ethier suffered the injury when he fouled a ball off of his shin last Friday. The only good news is that he will not require surgery.

Initial X-Rays were negative, but a follow up CT scan showed the fracture. No surgery…
