Schwarber: Fully torn ACL and LCL. Out for 172 meaningless games.

[Cubswin11]

Having a chance to really think of it now, we are very well covered to cover this injury the most pressure I actually see being on Contreras if/when our aging catchers get dinged up and have to hit the DL.

he sacrificed a baseball for you, what more do you want, god of dongs?

Oh, worst case scenario? Splendid. I'm never buying a Cubs shirt with a player's name on it again.

Just wait until the swelling goes down all the way.

[WrigleyField 22]

Give us the DH or give us DEATH.

That still puts our other dongsmith's at danger. Just make it a home run derby, no one plays d.

[Gilby]

Get your horsefeathers together, Soler.

[UMFan83]

Soler going to hit 30 home runs this year

[Aaron_Kennelly]

:bye:

I'm not sure we needed the full thread title makeover

[Cubswin11]

Soler is going to becoming the Donging leviathan he was meant to be

Tell that Boers and Bernstein. What a couple of tools.

[Liam Neeson]

Edit: Ehhhhh nevermind about Lucroy.

 

So we're either going to be seeing a lot more David Ross or carrying 3 catchers. What fun.

The most annoying thing about this is the people who think that this news means the end of the Cubs chances for the year.

[Old Style]

I know the team will be OK but this really bums me out. Schwarbs is my favorite player on this team.

I legitimately thinks it reduces their chances of winning 162 games.

[BigSlick]

This suuuuuucks

[BigSlick]

While not comparable because of expectations, this *feels* a lot to me like the 2006 broken wrist injury Derrek Lee got roughly the same time into the season. Just a huge gutshot for a dude expected to have a huge year.

 

This team will endure this, probably better than any other team in the league, but this sucks.

Fortunately, the Cubs had a spare 24 year old slugging corner OF lying around.

If by annoying you mean hilarious, then yes.

[NewUserName]

Honestly I think the Cubs are going to be fine. Personally I just really like watching Schwarber hit and will miss it greatly.

Yeah it's a tough blow because those postseason memories are so fresh it sucks that he won't be part of this team.

Corey Patterson tore his ACL in July 2003 and was ready for Spring Training in 2004. Bold prediction: Kyle heals faster than expected, makes the league his bitch for the last two weeks of September and carries us to a WS win. Four WS wins. 4 of them.

Not sure if you are kidding but there is 0% chance he's back this year. I don't care if he's running marathons in September they won't bring him back.
