Kemp's suspension reduced to 2 games

Matt Kemp's appeal for his 4-game suspension for fighting the Rockies' Yorvit Torrealba was reduced to 2 games today. As a result, he will immediately begin serving it today in San Diego and tomorrow in Detriot.

With Kemp out and Andruw Jones still healing, I would guess that Delwyn Young will see more at-bats the next 2 days. Juan Pierre will most likely play center, and Andre Ethier can play either corner spot. Young would seem like the natural replacement, especially considering that he's a switch hitter.
