Soto on 15 Day DL

[THISisTHEyear09]

Man the injuries keep coming... I think they will bring up Robinson since he didnt play last night for Iowa

[Butterscup1679666578]

Sounds very Cub-like. Get three big players back on Monday, have two back on the DL by Friday.

this is the worst season ever.

this is the worst season ever.

 

2004 says "hi"

[Post Count Padder]

So now what? Mark Johnson or Chris Robinson to the majors? Or do we make a move for another catcher?

So far this seems to be shaping up to be signifcantly worse than 2004.

Don't shoot the messenger, but I remember hearing on the radio after Soto got hurt that Lou mentioned that Fox could be a backup catcher. Bad.

[abuck1220]

good for fantasy purposes.

From Bruce's blog:

 

Apparently, catcher Geovany Soto's left-oblique strain is more serious than first thought. The Cubs are still calling it "mild," but they will place him on the 15-day disabled list today, and manager Lou Piniella said Soto could be out for one month.

Did I miss where we traded for Latroy Hawkins?

This division in there for the taking this year and these nagging injuries keep coming up. Very frustrating.

These guys are much worse underachievers than the 2004 club.

 

Honorable mention goes to the Cubs of 1997, who were out of it by the second week of the season. Just a terrible, terrible team.

[NeifiIsMyHomeBoy]

I'd love to try to make a witty joke about the Cubs predicament, but I am just too worn out from telling myself this season was going to end up ok. Just another shot to the body by the World Heavyweight Champion Injury Bug.

The curse is real.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

In case it matters to anyone, the Cubs facebook feed just said that Soto is not technically on the DL yet. They are waiting until they have a corresponding roster move before they place him.

Mark Johnson is on the AAA DL.

Where is Mike Piazza when you really need him?
