Not using a 6th starter doesn't matter if the 5 you have are not performing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Based on everything I’m reading, him being out of the hospital and still saying 4-6 weeks is really confusing. Why not just say he’ll be placed on the 10-day IL and evaluated after? Did they mean 4-6 days? Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zisk Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Mine burst when I was 8 or 9. Missed a month of school. Of course that was 50 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 It says to avoid strenuous activity for ar least 2-4 weeks. I would consider swinging a bat exactly that. Plus it will take a bit to ramp up. He’s not going to be ready a day after he can really let it go. So 4-6 sounds right. Probably closer to 4 if everything goes according to plan.

Sleepy Harold Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 My mom had hers burst/removed last summer and she wasn't allowed any lifting over 20 lbs for at least 4 weeks. Obviously she wasn't a professional athlete in her mid to late 20s so maybe there's some hope he can bounce back quicker. While the situation sucks, the initial recovery time frame seems reasonable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Dunn was 6 days. Unless it burst seems odd. It's basically and out-patient surgery with very little incision. Not blaming Eloy but yest another representation of why depth pieces were needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Sox are being cautious with the 4-6 week estimate because they have been raked over coals by fans and media about their injury time lines ....like yoan (was suppose to be out for a series) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmmmmbeeer Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Really seemed he was just starting to get into a rhythm again after coming back looking awful from his last IL stint. I do hope he takes a rehab assignment this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kids Can Play Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 This slogan fits best: "If Eloy didn't have any bad luck, he wouldn't have any luck at all!"

What fucking luck. Hope he's alright and back soon. This is both funny and sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
