September 7, 200421 yr Sorry if I missed this elsewhere, but in checking the Birmingham box scores for the last few weeks, I don't believe I saw brian anderson's name. Did he get hurt? Is it related to the wrist injuries that have bothered him at time? Anybody have any solid info?
September 7, 200421 yr Hernia - will require surgery - season done Wow, so that rumor ended up being true Good luck in recovery Brian
September 7, 200421 yr Wow, so that rumor ended up being true Good luck in recovery Brian that's what I hear, anyway.......
September 7, 200421 yr Wow, so that rumor ended up being true Good luck in recovery Brian What!!! You think I make up these friggin rumors, thanks for the trust compadre.
September 7, 200421 yr Author So, Rex, the obvious next questions are: What were your impressions of Brian? When can we expect to see him in Chicago? Does he project as a major league centerfielder? Thanks for any insight.
September 7, 200421 yr What!!! You think I make up these friggin rumors, thanks for the trust compadre. Not at all. I was just hoping it wasn't true for Anderson's sake.
September 7, 200421 yr Hernia - will require surgery - season done Most hernias turn out to be not very serious. Unless it heals prolapsed and then there could be serious problems. Anderson should be just fine.

September 7, 200421 yr Most hernias turn out to be not very serious. Unless it heals prolapsed and then there could be serious problems. Anderson should be just fine. I've had a couple of hernia surgeries (two, actually). I had to sit out a month after the surgery - and then get in shape again. It shouldn't affect anything long term, though - so that's good news.
September 7, 200421 yr Damn Anderson is been having bad luck these past couple seasons. (Wrist/Hernia) I hope he doesn't become too injury prone in his young pro career.
September 7, 200421 yr He is definately out for the season...the hernia thing is not yet their official announcemnt, but that could very well be the problem. Rex is usually dead on
September 7, 200421 yr He is definately out for the season...the hernia thing is not yet their official announcemnt, but that could very well be the problem. Rex is usually dead on Actually, I am slightly off this time........ what I got earlier tody was that he will not have surgery on the hernia and that it is not as bad as they first thought. The problem is they foudn the hernia while diagnoising a pulled groin, which keeps him from running. From what I am told, he will rehab the groin and they will keep an eye on the hernia. I guess they can correct themselves? I am no hernia expert. I may not be 100% right on the whole story, but I know I am all around it. LOL

LOL Rex - don't know if this is of any help - but what my doctor told me, when my hernia was first noticed - is that it can be put off till a later date - but eventually a surgery is going to be needed. It basically feels like playing with a slight, but constant (at least when you're moving) 'pull' in your lower abdoman (upper pelvis). It doesn't hurt, but - you feel something there, when normally, you really don't feel anything there. Sorry if that was confusing - do you understand what I'm saying? With me, though, it got to the point where I couldn't run (I need to run to play basketball) without feeling pain. I guess that's when I knew that surgery for me was imminent. Sorry that was so long, hopefully it will be of some help...
September 8, 200421 yr I had a slight hernia pull, but didn't require surgery if that helps any.. nope it doesn't
September 8, 200421 yr I hope he recovers fully and can play some nice baseball next year. More importantly though, he needs to recover.
September 10, 200421 yr they said hernia, and groin pull, will be back fully next season. And BTW it makes me mad that we have no prospects on the top 50 list, just a thought of why we cant make the playoffs

September 10, 200421 yr Author whose top 50 list? Rauch was once Number One. didn't mean much -- unless I missed something.
