HAHAHAHA.

 

Wow, I didn't see this one coming.

We are in no position to laugh at other teams' pitching injuries.

Yeah, but it lessens the blow, especially regarding those on this board who moaned that the Cubs should have signed him.

how on earth does that "lessen the blow?"

 

hahaha, another team that isn't even in our league has a big name pitcher injured, lol!

 

oh wait, wood and prior are still hurt. that doesn't lessen any blow.

I think we are in that "there's no way in hell this can be happening" sort of way.

HAHAHAHA.

 

Wow, I didn't see this one coming.

 

I knew it! They tried to downplay the injury. Giving longterm money to this guy was too risky.

The breakup of scar tissue isn't a big deal. It's not like he's out indefinitely like Prior.

 

His contract is ridiculous though.

I think it's more serious. I don't understand why he needs to miss two start considering this happened over 2 weeks ago and he hasn't pitched to hitters since.

I'm not a doctor but I play one on TV...

 

I think it's more serious because the manager was saying he'd only miss one start then it was increased to two.

 

It will probably be a month before he pitches again (from the onset of the problem). That doesn't seem minor to me; This happend 3/18 and he's scheduled on 4/16 (if healthy).

More serious? ...as in the Jays are taking a page out of the Cubs' media relations book? :lol:

 

Burnett threw 60 pitches off a mound 10 day after the scar tissue broke free (at 80%). he's scheduled to pitch a AAA game on Saturday.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Hmm, has Burnett been sighted throwing a towel?

No, I'm not implying that they aren't telling the truth, just that with his preexisting shoulder issues a timetable might be difficult to determine. Like I said, initially, they planned for him to only miss one start. He'll actually miss about a month of pitching time from the day they took him out for "precautionary reasons."
