May 27, 200520 yr Watching the Cubs game and Mark Prior just got SMOKED with a come-backer. Uh-oh. He looks like he's hurt badly. I mean, real badly.
May 27, 200520 yr Author He's done for the day. He just got hit in the right arm, he's already welting near the right elbow. As soon as they stood him up, he walked off the field. This could be disasterous.
May 27, 200520 yr Prior just got drilled on the elbow by a line-drive from Brad Hawpe. He was taken out of the game writhing in pain.
May 27, 200520 yr That ball could not have caught him more directly on the elbow. There's definitely a chance it could have fractured his elbow.

May 27, 200520 yr My boss just called me from the game asking for details.. he said Prior looked like he was in massive pain.
May 27, 200520 yr That ball could not have caught him more directly on the elbow. There's definitely a chance it could have fractured his elbow. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It welted up almost immediately.
May 27, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(Steff @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:25 PM) My boss just called me from the game asking for details.. he said Prior looked like he was in massive pain. Undoubtedly. Looking at his reaction and the reaction of the trainers, I have little doubt something isn't seriously wrong. It looked like it hit the elbow RIGHT ON THE BUTTON. I'm thinking fracture.
May 27, 200520 yr Dear Lord, that looked painful as hell. I hope he's okay. Seriously, putting my Cubbie hate aside, that looked really bad.
May 27, 200520 yr Cubs announcers keep saying it hit him above the elbow, but there's no way to tell where it hit him.
May 27, 200520 yr I know you might think its funny see someone hurt but comeon if you true baseball fan you should show some sort of compassion to anyone that gets hurt.
May 27, 200520 yr I don't think the injury itself is funny at all, I think it's funny that the cubs keep getting so f***ed over.
May 27, 200520 yr Of all the Cubs tickets I have gotten for my boss.. he's never seen Prior pitch.. he was like a kid in a candy store this morning when he told me he was going today.
May 27, 200520 yr QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:31 PM) Can this thread be deleted? I don't know, can it?
May 27, 200520 yr please be careful... what comes around goes around... and we don't want what's going around on the north side.............
May 27, 200520 yr QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 27, 2005 -> 07:29 PM) Classless. Absolutely. Sounded awful. Bet something is broken. Hope he recovers.
May 27, 200520 yr That's terrible. I would stay far away from Cub players. Their luck gets worse by the day.
May 27, 200520 yr Just remember.....we were laughing like crazy at the Cubs injuires last season early on in the year. Then, we just so happened to lose Frank and Ordonez for the season, and our season was over.
