May 2, 20187 yr I know there have been a ton of snowouts, but has he actually had an offday outside of those? Quick check seems to suggest no, today was game 28, and he had played 27 games coming into today.

May 5, 20187 yr Should have never been playing so soon. Give him at least 3-4 days off and when he returns, don't have him steal for a bit. Keeping him healthy is far more important than rushing him back.
May 5, 20187 yr If there is one bright side if he has to go on the DL, is that there are three off days in the next ten days. So he may only miss 7 games if he’s on the DL for the minimum amount of time.

Which sucks because I'm going to see my first game of the year next weekend when they play the Cubs and I really want to see Moncada play.

In hindsight it was too soon but this staff has a pretty good track record.

Unless he is a premium DH, if a player can’t play hard because he might get hurt, he shouldn’t be in the game. I am am starting to wonder about sports medicine myself. Now guys need all these days off, in basketball can’t play heavy minutes. Can’t be given the ball too much in football. The guys that played the hardest to me were Pete Rose, Walter Payton, and Michael Jordan. They played hard all the time. Except when MJ broke his foot, they hardly ever missed a game, and had a heavy workload, they all would be considered well beyond abused these days.

I think these guys are too muscular for their own good
May 5, 20187 yr Strange that the hammy tightens up with the warmer weather. You'd think it would've been a problem in the cold.
