April 17, 200421 yr They just reported that he's gonna be out longer than expected and that he very well might miss the entire year. He threw off the mound a lil bit yesterday, but the team reported that's he's nowhere close to coming back to the club anytime soon. So it looks like the Cub fans r gonna have their excuse when they don't get to the playoffs this year.
April 17, 200421 yr Author Did they say he is having surgery, or he just isn't getting healthy or what???? They didn't say anything about surgery. Just that he's not healing and he's nowhere close to being ready to pitch. They also said that the team is scared to death that if they bring him back before he's 100% healed that it might mess up his entire career. So i'm guessing u can pretty much stick a fork in Mark Prior for 2004.
April 17, 200421 yr Did they say he is having surgery, or he just isn't getting healthy or what???? It's more speculation and BS... Prior

April 17, 200421 yr Nuke...PLEASE let me know the next time you're in Chicago...I HAVE to buy you beers!!! I'll be in town from 1-2 May and 9-28 May. Vacation is within spitting distance!
April 17, 200421 yr If he misses the season, it will be very sad to see it happen to such a talent like him. If he weren't pitching for the cubs, I would feel even worse for him. O well, he has to move on then, or try to battle back thru it.
April 17, 200421 yr I'll be in town from 1-2 May and 9-28 May. Vacation is within spitting distance! Email me when the time gets closer!
April 17, 200421 yr If he weren't pitching for the cubs Would you rather have him pitching for the Twins? Yeah, that's what I thought.
April 17, 200421 yr Its funny how he was only going to miss maybe 2 starts. Then he was going to miss a month, and now when they have all of those $250 tickets sold, he may be out for the year.

April 18, 200421 yr Once I hear a press release saying he is out for the year, then I'll believe it. There has been a lot of speculation, and I certainly wouldn't complain if it is true.
