April 10, 201412 yr What a disaster! Thanks Viciedo for extending that inning. What type of impact can this have on his swing going forward?
April 10, 201412 yr The Jake Peavy curse continues. Obviously the biggest worry is Avi, but I guess De Aza and Viciedo are here for the year now. Certainly haven't had much luck with the trade candidates between some playing like s*** and being forced to keep others.
April 10, 201412 yr It isnt about '14 so you cringe at him losing development time, but not tons more than that. He's under control.

If you get a good offer for them you just make the deal and play Danks in the OF.

April 10, 201412 yr What hitters have successfully recovered from this injury? I saw Matt Kemp had labrum surgery a few years ago.
April 10, 201412 yr I did not see the play but I know one thing, I see way too much unnecessary diving for balls in MLB. Before we moved to Florida I was a pretty good friend of Jimmy Piersall who was a hell of a center fielder and he despised it when guys dove for balls.
April 10, 201412 yr This sucks. What a buzz kill. I retract my statement of us contending until September. De Aza and Viciedo need to step up big time

True I guess, but before it seemed inevitable because of one player too many, now it's merely a possibility contingent upon receiving a good enough offer.

Before we moved to Florida I was a pretty good friend of Jimmy Piersall who was a hell of a center fielder and he despised it when guys dove for balls. It seemed last week like Garcia had terrible form while diving for balls. He almost did this on a dive last week too.

De Aza and Viciedo need to step up big time I was immediately back in high draft pick mode. I want to turn on the games to watch Abreu, Eaton, and Semien. I am looking forward to Matt Davidson coming up and Chris Sale starts. Other than that, I will check that Winston Salem box score and hope that Hahn can dump a bunch of guys by the deadline. What a f***ing downer of a day.
April 10, 201412 yr Thank alot you lawn ornament Viciedo. You are part of the reason Avi is out rest of 2014. Edited April 10, 201412 yr by Soxfest
April 10, 201412 yr Well that plain sucks. A whole season erased. He's going to have a tough climb to stardom. All we can do is wish him well.
