Sam Fuld on DL - anyone know what's up?

[karenmac]

Hi all!

Was noticing the lack of Sam Fuld in the box scores at Daytona over the last few days, investigated a bit, and he hasn't played since 6/21. The Daytona transactions page shows that he was put on the DL on 6/24. Anyone know what happened? I don't remember reading about it here. A tough loss for Daytona, and it explains a whole bunch on why Matt Ciaramella was with the Chiefs one day and promoted the next.

 

Enquiring minds want to know! :)

alright, I obviously didn't look hard enough - looks like he had a slightly bulged disc in his back: http://cubs.scout.com/2/543755.html He's expected back any day now.

All those bus trips must be hell on backs.

I like the fact that the minors have a 7-day DL, as opposed to 15 at the major league level. It's nice to have for a player who needs to miss a little time but not a full 15 days.

Its good when players like Glendon Rusch get put on the DL.

For Rusch the minimum should be 120 days. :D
