‏@AdamMcCalvy

First #Brewers injury of the spring is a weird one: K-Rod stepped on a cactus. Not sure how long he'll be out.

so advanced

elbows exploding everywhere

Shins, too.

Or maybe just those of Jose Iglesias

So depressed for Jarrod Parker, I really liked his second half last year and was anxious to see him play this season. A second surgery is very bad news.

And now Aroldis Chapman.

...struck by a liner.

Game called in the sixth. Geez.

Pitchf/x data reports the pitch was a 99 mph fastball.

Doesn't he have the tendency to stay up after he releases the ball? Was that a factor?

Ehh, don't really feel like watching it happen.

‏@BNightengale
The #Reds medical staff says absolutely Chapman will pitch this year although not until May

that's good news

really frightening

Assumed Vlad was out there to hit the ceremonial first 58-footer.

Broken leg!

How bizarre.

don baylor carried off the field after catching vlad's ceremonial first pitch

just learned that Baylor has had the same disease, MM, for 11 years that I have. It knocks the shit out of your bones.

Carlos Gonzalez left Wednesday's game after swallowing his dip

"swallowing his dip" is just a euphemism for an advanced...well you know

TJ surgery for Matt Moore

adam wainwright: hyperextended right knee

i stepped away from watching the game for about 20 minutes, and i totally missed it. ugh. hope this doesn't knock him out for months or something.

colorado springs sky sox utilityman matt mcbride broke his foot during a home-run trot

Michael Pineda out 3-4 weeks with Grade I strain of the Teres Major muscle below his right shoulder. Rub some tar on it.

Matthew Kory:
"Robinson Cano returned to New York and fans chanted 'Sellout' at him which is weird because only 37,484 people were there."

(more like 8000 with the weather)

Matt Cain cut his finger while trying to cut a sandwich into "fancy triangles".

uh oh jose fernandez is getting an mri

basically every pitcher will be TJ'd by August

@timmarchman
If you have a starter who's 24 or younger with a K/9 of 10 or above just send him to Europe for a year. http://bbref.com/pi/shareit/t1xUr …

imo we should cancel the 2015 season, give every pitcher on 40-man rosters/ba's top 20 prospects tommy john on nov. 1, 2014, and start fresh

@injuryexpert
Sabathia headed to see Dr. Andrews for a consult on the knee. Raises the concern level a notch. Yankees say no meniscus damage.

ROBOT PITCHERS NOW

jose fernandez to dl

TINSTAPP

swish had season-ending surgery on both knees

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Garrett Richards will be out six to nine months after an MRI showed he suffered a torn left patellar tendon, the team announced Thursday.

Richards, who was placed on the 60-day DL, is scheduled to undergo surgery next week. He sustained the injury Wednesday night against the Red Sox while covering first base in the second inning.

so sad for Richards, I love watching him pitch.

if richards were a yankee, hank would be demanding designated fielders by now

knee surgery for Manny Machado

pretty impressive what the o's are doing with no wieters, half a season of machado, chris davis sucking, etc.

Seems Lincecum is out for the rest of season, the scans revealed a broken soul.

Damn, his soul patch must have blown out.

i missed it by a few seconds but the red's SP Axelrod was pulled after 7 pitches with some sort of weird injury.

Stanton, fastball to face(?), now on stretcher.

o fuck

Getting ugly.

Someone needs to escort Fiers off the premises.

headley just hit also i think?

I guess I understand but Fiers was visibly shaken, it looked like he was nearly in tears after hitting Stanton, he's not really in shape to pitch right now

<3 Casey McGehee but seriously dude

damn

https://vine.co/v/OaupxpK5w0u

Game is a mess. Fiers then drilled Reed Johnson in the hand. Johnson was in the act of swinging. There were two strikes. He was called out. Is the hand not part of the bat?

Made the mistake of watching the MIL broadcast. Bet Waltz went off on that warning.

Ugh

Was at the game tonight; whole stadium went pale. Never had to watch grounds grew pour fresh dirt over a big blood stain before

I don't know how to link to it, but the Marlins TV broadcast of the near-brawl in the fifth was disgusting. Whoever that Marlins announcer is was calling for blood, cheering on McGehee during his rampage. He even acknowledged Fiers was shaken and the HBP wasn't intentional, but kept shouting this "when your big guy goes down, you gotta fight back" nonsense. Total, disgusting bloodsport BS.

ya - that's def unprofessional.

Here's the clip; it was Tommy Hutton

Doesn't look promising:
