Mags out for 3 months

2-3 months for hernia surgery? Ouch -- he must have waited a couple months too long to get the surgey. I've had two of them (hereditary), one when I was a lot younger, and one two summers ago. The doctor said that if I'd waited a couple weeks longer, I would have been in a lot of pain, and it would have been really bad.

 

Instead, luckily, I was only off my feet for a month. But ouch -- two to three months.

 

And isn't the only out in that contract if Magglio hurts his knee? So, even though he'll be on the DL fo almost half the season, he still gets his money?

 

If that's true -- then Boras absolutely ass-raped Illitch and Detroit...

Boras ass-raped the Tigers regardless of Maggs injury. He aint worth that kind of money. I feel bad for Maggs in that I don't wish injury upon anyone, but I sure don't feel bad for the Tigers.

The contract is knee only because the risk is a reoccuring injury, not the potential that Maggs may have a completely non-related career ending injury.

 

And if the Tigers try and get out of the contract, they better have a few Dr.s who are willing to under oath state that it is a knee problem, because it will go to court.

well i don't feel sorry for anyone. he was always a risk , detriot took a chance and lost. I took a bat to my maggs bobblehead at the beginning of the year

 

Least of all Ordonez, in terms of feeling sorry for.

 

He gets paid ... go figure. All of a sudden this guy is coming down with rather strange ailments. I mean, it can happen, but there sure is a funny smell. He was as healthy as a horse here and in addition to the knee situation, a viral ailment and a hernia. Let's get ptatc on this, he'll find out what's what.

 

Calling ptatc. :bang
