Ouch.

[soccer10k]

Scratch him off the MVP candidates list.

[Rob]

And Goodbye to the fantasy league championship... :cry:

[Backtobanks]

He may not win the MVP, but his stats certainly look like he played a full season.

[Balsa]

Ouch. That just sucks.

 

Still wish I would have drafted him though...

The Indians had been calling the injury a bruise and had said that Hafner was day to day.

 

I really think MLB has to start penalizing teams for lying about player injuries. The NFL does it, and it works fine.

Then the Cubs would be constantly in trouble.

My HR Derby team has the injury bug the Cubs pitching staff has this year.

It didn't seem to hurt them today. I was there with my college. We had upper deck seats. It was an awesome game to be at.

From what I read on SI.com, the first x-ray was negative, so I can see how they thought he might be day-to-day. They didn't find the fracture until they did a second x-ray on Friday.

He's actually helping my fantasy team. My opponent this week has both Hafner and Wilkerson on her team, and she still has both of them in her active lineup even though they're both out for the year.

 

Too bad this matchup is only for 5th & 6th place.

I'd made a Hafner for Liriano trade about a week before Liriano went down... I thought I'd gotten the best of the trade for my postseason run.

 

Instead, I'm plugging waiver wire vets into the most important offensive position and my friend is getting Liriano back for the second week of the playoffs.
