anderson survived the entirety of 2015 only to require a backeotomy a day before the first game of spring 2016 =\

@LangoschMLB
Jhonny Peralta suffered a left thumb injury on Saturday. Early indications are that he tore a ligament, could miss 2-3 months.

carter capps is having TJ today

@matthewkawahara
Jarrod Parker, facing hitters for the first time this spring, just came off the mound yelling in pain after throwing a pitch. #Athletics

@Ken_Rosenthal
#Athletics say RHP Jarrod Parker has refractured medial epicondyle in his right elbow. The team and Parker will determine next step later.

some dave dravecky shit

jeez, dont lose that arm

Bronson Arroyo was scratched from his start for the Nationals yesterday. It was later reported that he has an 80% tear in his labrum, and his career is likely over.

Rays' closer Brad Boxberger out at least 2 months, abdominal surgery

It seems when pitchers get those abdominal problems, it takes them a long time to get over them and easy to re-injure. Johnny Cueto lost about a year to one over a couple seasons.

@washingnats
Confirmed: Bronson Arroyo has a inflamed burca sac. A baseball source said it could take a few weeks before he gets back on the mound. #Nats

andre ethier, fractured right tibia, out 10-14 weeks

carson smith, strain of the flexor mass muscle, no timetable for return yet

but prob just first few weeks of season, no surgery

@BNightengale
Royals reliever Tim Collins, who underwent Tommy John surgery last March, now needs a second TJ surgery, likely sidelining him until 2018.

The Milwaukee Brewers will start the season without reliever Will Smith, who tore a ligament in his right knee while taking his spikes off after a game.

http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/03/30/andrew-miller-drilled-on-the-wrist-immediately-leaves-game/

Reporters at the game said that Miller immediately walked off the mound and into the dugout, where he slammed his glove and cap down.

dang. at least it was his non-pitching wrist. as a fan of a non AL-team i am rooting for the yankees' bullpen to obliterate strikeout records.

as a fan of a non AL- similarly hated team i am rooting for the yankees' bullpen to obliterate strikeout records

fixed

nnaaahh, i liked my version better

imagine another yankees/cardinals world series, though. wouldn't that be something? i mean wouldn't that really be something?!

stop that ok just stop it

the yankee pinstripes vs the birds on the bat, the titans of tradition! aw man it would just be so CLASSIC you know

i just had to look up if there's been one since '64, because i would've skipped it

a 2016 with a cards/yanks world series would be the perfect capper to a 2016 with a clinton/trump white house race

but of course much like my vote for hillary, i'd be forced to root for the yanks

as long as all 4 principals got fired

or set on fire

i think cards/yanks would be more like clinton vs bush, but that ship already sailed

esp after reading the BP annual chapter on them, i think the Angels are the team most like Trump

except for lack of WINNING

what team is bernie, and why is it the tampa bay rays?

marco rubio is the nationals, including the part about spending at least half his time outside of DC

Keep it up, guys, you're halfway to a thinkpiece.

@JackCurryYES
Source: Andrew Miller's CT-scan revealed a chip fracture in right wrist. He will visit with a hand specialist to determine the next step.

A.J. Pollock fractured his elbow sliding into home plate :/

last few days of spring play can be a bastard

ouch damn

weird play. sounds like he's been having problems with that elbow for a long time tho

@Ken_Rosenthal Apr 6
Heaney to #Angels’ DL with flexor muscle strain in left arm. Ligament said to be sound. Issue is with muscle. For now, no threat of TJ.

@CarrieMuskat

William Ladson @washingnats

sweet fucking jesus – do i want to click that?!

there's a picture of him thumbs-up in a hospital bed with an eyepatch, from his instagram, with his explanation of the surgery/doctors/etc. there's a slightly graphic depiction in the article of what happened.

@MikeCranston1
Matt Davidson, called up just before the game, broke his right foot in his White Sox debut today running the bases.

Literally right after finding out he made the all star team.

Danny Salazar to DL w/ elbow inflammation

Choo, broken forearm

stanton out for season

Stephen Strasburg was scratched from his start Monday night against the Orioles and placed on the 15-day disabled list with right elbow soreness, the Nationals announced Monday afternoon. Right-hander A.J. Cole has been promoted from Triple-A Syracuse to start in his place.

also, stanton is talking about trying to return in time for the last week of the season. guess that possibility also depends on how the marlins are doing by that point

After the rep departed, the players said, Valencia confronted Butler and told him, “Don’t you ever loud talk me in front of a rep. That was wrong,” and walked aggressively toward Butler. Butler turned around, took a couple steps toward Valencia, and according to both witnesses, said, “I can say whatever I want and your b— ass isn’t going to do anything about it.”

One player said that the men leaned in, bumped heads and then started pushing each other, Valencia started swinging and hit Butler in the temple. After the players broke things up, Butler told the players he was OK.

stanton suddenly back from season ending groin injury, pinch hit tonight and got a single.

must've gone to the Fortress of Solitude

The Washington Nationals were hoping Stephen Strasburg’s return on Wednesday would provide an extra boost to their postseason outlook. Instead, they’re left wondering what his immediate and perhaps long-term future will hold after he was forced from the game with apparent discomfort in his right arm.

Strasburg had retired one Atlanta Braves batter in the third inning when he first started to appear uncomfortable.

^ makes me really really sad.

it does make one wonder if boras knew something

Indians catcher Yan Gomes has a broken right wrist, an injury that will likely end his season.

Gomes was set to be activated from the disabled list Friday and catch Corey Kluber when AL Central-leading Cleveland opened a critical three games series against the Detroit Tiger. However, Gomes was hit with a pitch during a rehab appearance Wednesday night for Double-A Akron.

Manager Terry Francona said an MRI revealed Gomes has a non-displaced fracture. He'll visit a specialist to determine what to do next.

Keon Broxton ran arms-first into the brick wall at Wrigley at full speed today, probably done for the season with a wrist fracture. Too bad, he is a fun player to watch.
