8/14: Cubs (Lilly) @ Braves (Glavine) 6:10p CDT CSN

Left hip contusion.

[Schwarber Fan]

So if Aramis has to miss any time, will it force Lou to put Soriano at the 4 spot, or would he go with Edmonds/Johnson?

 

Who cares? It's just the batting order...

 

I'm more concerned with who plays in his absence.

 

I think there's very little doubt it would be Fontenot/Cedeno at 2B and DeRo at 3rd everyday

[UMFan83]

So if the Cubs win tonight and Aramis is hurt, then the season series ends Cubs 6, Braves 2 correct?

[Soul]

Julian Tavarez huh? Could it be argued that hes the worst pitcher to ever have a 10 year+ career?

 

There's a whole laundry list of pitchers that could be added to that list. Trachsel is the first to come to mind.

 

Yeah, but Trasch had a solid few seasons mixed in. Was Tavarez ever aything better than mediocre?

He had a couple seasons where he was alright, IIRC. I don't think recently.

Unless Vitters can grow up in a hurry, wed be looking at DeRo at 3rd and Font at 2nd.

[PrimeTime]

Rocco Badelli already out of game after sliding at home. The guys bones must be made out of cardboard

Left hip contusion - is that really a day to day thing, or is that him being at 75% for the next 6 weeks?

Isn't a contusion just a bruise?

Contusions basically a scary term for a nasty bruise, correct?

I might be mistaken, but I believe a contusion is typically just a skin injury. A scrape or bruise or something like that.

 

I wouldn't think that would require him to miss any time.

Just reported on the radio feed. Said he was day to day w/ a left hip contusion.

I remember Theriot had a foot contusion, and he missed a game or 2. I think it was more like a deep bruise.

If this is true I'm pretty sure it's excellent news....considering

[Ski]

Phew. That makes me feel a lot better.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

contusion is a fancy word for bruise

[98navigator]

Word on Ram is a left hip contusion. That's just a bad bruise. He'll live. :)

Trachsel's Career Line -- 143-159 4.39 ERA 1.41 WHIP

Tavarez's Career Line -- 84-73 4.44 ERA 1.48 WHIP

 

They appear to be equally crappy.

Yea, but that's a foot. Big difference.

Oh my GOD, stop chopping you stupid hay seeds.
