    From a bit of searching it looks like 2 months is the going amount of missed time - unless it's a more severe dislocation.
  2. JGalt73
    A rebuttal, of sorts, to the Yahoo article from Baseball Daily Digest.

    With a +6 run differential so far they're not a 90 win team.

    Stimulants don't result in 50 game penalties. Here's the rules. Banned PEDs - 1-52 are steroids or the like 53. Human Growth Hormone (“HGH”) 54. Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF-1), including all isomers of IGF-1 sometimes referred to as Mechano Growth Factors 55. Gonadotrophins (including LH and hCG) 56. Aromatase Inhibitors, including Anastrazole, Lestrozole, Aminogluthemide, Exemestane, Formestane, and Testolactone 57. Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators, including Raloxifene, Tamoxifen and Toremifene 58. Other Anti-estrogens, including Clomiphene, Cyclophenil, and Fulvestrant I can't think of any plausible medical reason for the use of 53-58 for a healthy athlete in his 30's. Those at the end are all testosterone related and may work with the 'male enhancement' side loosely. But then again, there is a reason these are banned.

    ADD would be a good place to start looking. That wouldn't result in a banning if it were prescribed by a doctor. Sometimes they use cocaine during eye surgery, for example. It would result in a suspension unless the league grants a Therapeutic Use Exemption prior to getting the drug.

    Schaefer was suspended for buying HGH based on an investigation, not any positive test. Hmmm....
  7. JGalt73
    I'm guessing not, as they've called up a AAA OF. Also, other returnees from suspension appear to have necessitated a roster move.
  8. JGalt73
    This, if true, changes the story a bit.
  9. JGalt73
    In going with the ARod defense of his 'cousin'... isn't Aramis Ramirez Manny's cousin?
  10. JGalt73
    That might be the first time I've heard Pat call "that ball's got a chance" - caught. Too bad.
  11. JGalt73
    Will the game headline be: Costly win or Injury to insult C'mon Marmol!
  12. JGalt73
    At least the Juan Pierre trade paid dividends on one day.
  13. JGalt73
    Gotta pull him.
  14. JGalt73
    Premium content. Here's an excerpt....
  15. JGalt73
    And, we lose another game in the standings to the Cards (and Brewers).
  16. JGalt73
    We've now been outscored on the year.
  17. JGalt73
    5th straight quality start?
  18. JGalt73
    Makes you long for a backup 3B and RF with some offensive ability. Too bad there were none of them available on our own roster during the offseason.
  19. JGalt73
    From BP's statistics, Soriano was -15, -12, -26, +6, -27 runs versus an 'average' 2B in his 5 years playing primarily there. He was about replacement level then.
  20. JGalt73
    Gregg deserves the W here - here's hoping he gets it.
  21. JGalt73
    Sometimes it pays to not have Marmol as closer...
  22. JGalt73
    At least Gregg's ERA went down?
  23. JGalt73
    No way I let him face Fielder.

    MLBTV

    JGalt73 replied to Vinestal's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    I have a patchy high speed connection (2000-3000 kb/s) and still had amazing picture quality compared to last year. Stunning picture quality... though I've watched games almost exclusively on MLB.TV for the past 3 years and I'm not used to regular television let alone HDTV!

    Fukudome played CF for Japan and went 0-0 with 4 BB.
