Bone bruise. As long as he doesn't dive on it, he will be fine.

I don't even know who Keller is. I have never once commented on him. And yes you have undervalued Vaughn since the drafted a RH first baseman that they could get anywhere.

Sure but what does that have to do with undervaluing Vaughn?

Hate to tell you this but other teams look at potential as well. Not just what a rookie did while playing 2 positions he hasn't played before.

Get your game threads out of the way now then. Maybe it will change when the games count.

Anyone can improve. However rookies I. The first look at the league have a better chance. Besides I didn't comment on any other players only on your comment of Vaghn hitting against right handed pitching when the ground is damp and humidity is above 84%.

Like watching NASCAR. I only watch for the wrecks.

On Sundays, after 2:35, when it is partially overcast. He was a rookie. There is a slight possibility he will improve.

FIRE EVERYONE!

It's going to be tough now. He is probably looking at a minimum of 3 years to get to dtarter innings.

I believe we were talking about the same issue just a difference in the length of rehab. One towards the longer end and the other on the shorter end. Of course it is all pure speculation because there is no information and no one could be even close.

Very true. We do functional tests to determine if they can get by without it. There have been cases in the NFL where during physicals they found a player doesn't have one.

Patella Tendinopathy would not be 3-4 months. 2-3 on the most conservative.

Highly doubtful its a patella tendinopathy. That doesn't show up with an impact injury like we saw today. Although it is possible.

I agree. This is the reason I always said pitching was a higher priority than RF this off season.

It is possible. The recovery for the surgery is the opposite. For a partial meniscectomy where they remove part if it, the recovery is 8 weeks or so. If they repair it, there is a period of non-weight bearing because the healing is so poor due to the lack of blood supply. This is around a 9-12 month recovery

No doubt.

You can tell when it's that severe. It does happen but most often they bring the cart out.

Not without a more significant limp than that.

Just trying to throw most common possibilities out there.

No real way to tell at this point.

I'm sure they did. There are some issues that are more maintenance than surgery. They'll do an MRI and we'll see.

He wasn't barely walking of the field. He had a slight limp with no assistance. There isn't enough information to make a good guess either way. Could be anything. Just pointing out that there is no reason to assume surgery. That fact it's the same knee that didn't need surgery for the issue is a good sign.

Rehab, strengthening, sometimes bracing.

Just because there is discomfort doesn't mean there is a structural issue. Could be capsular or patella joint dysfunction.
