Did he even play a game?

RHP Kyle Funkhouser recently sustained a fracture to his 5th metatarsal in his right foot after turning his ankle on an uneven sidewalk while walking home after a game. The injury will require surgery & we expect him to make a full recovery & be ready for Spring Training in 2019.

(a prospect)

Strasburg, nerve impingement

Bryant, shoulder

I was only half-listening to Cubs pregame but apparently it's due to the abbreviated follow-through in Bryant's swing? Doug Glanville seemed to be saying KB is going to need to rethink his swing to stay healthy.

Da Bum:
I’m growing concerned that Bryant had a chronic shoulder issue that explains his disappearing power the past two years. Talk me down from the ledge Jay!

Jay Jaffe:
I dunno how chronic it is, but the link between the shoulder issue and lesser power is almost certainly more than a coincidence. That said — and I say this without having not looked closely — I wonder if Bryant has gone too far in the other direction when it comes to tweaking his swing to cut down on strikeouts, a change he made a couple years ago. It might be time to review that.

looks like...yep, that's right *mimes putting on headphones* it looks like kris bryant's performance is officially under jay jaffe review

Tonight OF Aaron Judge sustained a chip fracture of the right wrist (ulnar styloid bone). No surgery has been recommended. The Yankees approximate a 3-week time period before Judge can swing a bat in a game situation.

Cardinals' Weaver misses start after cutting finger on food tray

Luke Weaver's fight with dinner prevented him from taking the mound Sunday.

The St. Louis Cardinals right-hander was scratched from his start against the Kansas City Royals after slicing the index finger of his pitching hand on aluminum foil that was covering a tray. The team attempted to glue the wound to allow him to pitch, but it would not hold.

"He cut it on the piece of the topping," Cardinals interim manager Mike Shildt said, according to ESPN.

"It's on his right index finger. He probably could have started, but it just made sense to not push it and have him throw 90 or 100 pitches. We didn't want him to miss another start."

Tyson Ross filled in for Weaver and allowed two runs over six innings while striking out four.

Leonys Martin has been battling a life-threatening bacterial infection that attacked his internal organs. He is currently in stable condition, and is improving. Chris Antonetti addressed the Indians about the situation this afternoon.

Trevor Bauer to DL with small fibula fracture

Weird, initial X-Rays said negative.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said following Monday's game that Brian Dozier will be sent for further testing after an EKG test for cardiac rhythms revealed "abnormalities."

That's 2 Dodgers with heart issues in the past few days.

Back to Bauer, this means his regular season is done ja?

One day after Brian Dozier said Zyrtec triggered his dizziness, Ross Stripling said soft beds at the Ritz-Carlton hampered his back. This team is like Consumer Reports.

Wil Myers has been scratched from the Padres' lineup Wednesday due to a lacerated nose.

Advice: Myers suffered the injury when he got hit by a stray batting practice ball while standing near the third base bag ahead of Wednesday night's game at Coors Field.
