The Chicago Cubs shut out the Dodgers, 4-0, Thursday in a Cactus League game at Camelback Ranch. Ryu may require some outings against minor league competition before the Dodgers can rely upon him. AT THE PLATE: The Dodgers plan to start Andre Ethier (hip stiffness) as either an outfielder or a designated hitter on Friday. Roberts had mentioned using Ethier for an at-bat or two on Thursday, but elected to let him rest during the game . Puig struck out twice on Thursday as his Cactus League batting average fell to .214.
