It seemed apparent nothing was broken. Something was pulled or strained. I just hope he can get back before June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still could miss a couple of months. True but it could have been a labral tear which can be surgery and 3-6 months of rehab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our resident sports physician in the game thread suggested it was consistent with a hip flexor injury, which is probably mid June to July depending on severity? Just to clarify, I'm not a physician.

greg775 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I feel sorry for our guys. They are such physically impressive specimens they get hurt going all out. Look how fast Robert was running. He was really hustling. Eloy tries to rob a home run. Extra effort and he's out for a long time. This is a huge loss for the Sox if he's out a few months or the rest of the season. You take away Robert and Eloy and my own opinion is it's not a playoff team anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have to win the games we are supposed to win. Bullpen and SP are going to have to carry us for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praying for that, he’s my favorite Sox player in ages. Robert is so fun to watch, especially on defense. Hopefully not terrible news tomorrow and we will see him later in the season. Need Engel back soon to at least have good defense out in CF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hard enough without Eloy, going to be rough stretch without Roberts too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most conservative would be 8 weeks at the June, begnning of July. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLessRob Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 This just guarantees Leury is now a full time player (and more Lamb). I’m sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basabe, Steele Walker, Adolfo, Rutherford, L.Gonzalez, etc. Might as well stick Sheets or Burger out there...what’s to lose?
