August 18, 201114 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 18, 2011 -> 10:05 AM) The last thing we need is for this stupid hand injury to turn into one of those career-long ailments. He just needs to be shut down for the rest of the season at this point.

That's what we get for letting him rot in AAA only to suffer multiple injuries and possibly ruin him before he ever got a chance.

We clearly should have shut him down in Spring Training this year. That's the only way he could have avoided getting hit on the hand.

August 19, 201114 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 08:45 AM) That's awesome. The stache returns. Didn't he shave or at least severely trim the stache? See what happens? Grow a bushy mustache, break your wrist. Good thing he didn't go all Brian Bruney. He'd have shattered his shoulder.
August 19, 201114 yr I'm not going to lie, keep him out a few more days, Flowers has been giving some unreal at bats to this team. His swing has been cut down considerably from what it was and he is flat out seeing the ball well.

His swing has been cut down considerably from what it was and he is flat out seeing the ball well. Flowers has looked pretty good at the plate. Considering how poorly he's hit in AAA, it's a nice surprise. No telling it will last, but keeping him in there is the only way to find out.

He's out at least another week plus.

No telling it will last, but keeping him in there is the only way to find out. His approach surprised me. For example, look at how terrible most of our hitters looked against the Indians pen and their nasty low and away sliders. Flowers didnt even blink when they threw those to him, just took a walk like he's supposed to.
