Josh Hamilton Injury

[Guest]

Season's probably over. This plus the sketchy pitching cements that. The Front Office traded bourjos and any decent backup to a OF. I warned you guys about this scenario a few months back.

Sliding headfirst into first base does not equate to "making an effort" any moreso than just running through the bag.  It's like commending someone for picking up dogshit with their hands instead of a shovel because it requires more effort and grit.

 

There's no reason for any player to ever slide while running to first.  The risk vs. reward is pretty much nonexistent; all risk zero reward. 

Word!

With all these huge injuries in baseball it was only a matter of time before the Angels were hit by one.

You DID warn us. But no one listened.

Shame on them, shame on all of them!

I prepared myself by getting into NHL playoff mode. Let's Go Rangers! (NY)

Get Matt Long up here, stat.

Knowing the Angels luck he'll come back around the deadline and we'll hear how it's like acquiring a big bat via trade.

Hamilton out 4-8 weeks. The Angel conversion rate would be 12-16 weeks.
