14 hours ago14 hr Stinks - hope he can recover quick and put this behind him and get back to crushing asap. In meantime, next guy up. Would be nice to see Colson go on a heater here along with Jacob coming up and showing us he’s a dude.
14 hours ago14 hr Author 4 to 6 weeks… OUCH. So it turned out to be a legit grade 1 tear, I suppose. Weak boner.
14 hours ago14 hr Author Damn! Stone just said it’s grade 2. I’ll be shocked if he is back in 4 to 6 weeks and am surprised it’s that bad based on Mune’s reaction.
12 hours ago12 hr Mune's absence during June and July could really upset the season in terms of wins, and if things go South, in attendance and fan interest. Every player and pitcher needs to step it up. There is enough talent to hang in there until Mune comes back.

11 hours ago11 hr Just doing some quick napkin math if we take the middle of 4-6 weeks that puts him returning ~30 games from now. Sox record if we play:.534 = 47-41 (current pace).500 = 46-42.465 = 45-43.430 = 44-44.400 = 43-45.375 = 42-46 (~2025 pace).333 = 41-47Even if the Sox suddenly became the worst team in baseball - Rockies .362 or Tigers .373 would still be within striking distance of .500 when he's back.
11 hours ago11 hr Let's not rush him back. Let's make sure he's fully recovered. We can't afford to have him reinjure it and miss out on playoff time.
10 hours ago10 hr I did find this quote from Getz to the Sun-Times interesting.Not sure what it means in connection with Teel who may be farther away than first thought, unless he thinks Murakami is going to heel quicker?“But you figure it out. It’s like, all right, we’ll get him back. I think we’ll get him back right around [the return of catcher] Kyle Teel. Hopefully, we’ll stay afloat and keep this interesting."If they are saying it will be 4-6 weeks with him and Getz is saying his return could line up with Teel that would meen Teel won't be back until July around the All-Star break.
