Greinke: Fractured collar bone

[PercySquint]

All in all, a pretty good throwdown. I enjoyed it. Much more entertaining than anything the Angels are doing...

[jshep]

No footstrike pic.

 

Darn, for whatever reason that one doesn't want to work no matter what I try.

 

I just threw the link to the picture in there instead.

Look at that strategy. I think Greinke once took a women's self defense class

 

 

Looks like Zack and Bobby Hill took the same class

Shane when are you on DWTS?

 

Eff the Dogs

 

BTW - Thread of the year

[gotbeer]

Proof positive that Greinke should have re-signed with the Angels.  If he did, he never would have gotten injured, since the Angels have no fight in them.

Ouch.  Greinke having surgery to have a rod placed in his collar bone.  Expected to be out 8 weeks, according to Rosenthal.  Bummer for the doggies.

I hate the dogs. They're right up there with the rangers. Just wish it happened to another one of their pitchers. Us awkward people have to stick together

He will have a rod placed in his clavicle to stabilize and align the fracture.

Eight weeks sounds generous. From what this sounds like it could be an entire season.

Don't be surprised if the Dodgers sign a bulllpen pitcher with a black belt just for Monday's game. 

[Blarg]

Chan Ho Park to make his Dodgers return.

Like someone else mentioned, Nick Blackburn has hit Quentin more often than any other pitcher and he's currently pitching in AAA for the Twins.

 

Shouldn't be hard for the Dodgers to bring him aboard for one start.

You do know Quentin spent quite a few days on the DL last season so I would think He'd want to avoid injury. Looks to me like Greinke  hurt himself from the video. Too bad for the Dodger$.

[Richard]

Quentin gets 8 games. Quentin wins.

[jshep]

If I was Quentin, I think I would skip the appeal this time.

 

Probably better if he doesn't play in the series against the Dodgers that's coming up.

[Blarg]

Appeal then when the weekend series ends take the amended suspension to miss the Dodgers.

[mancini79]

Quentin will appeal for sure. 

[2002_halos_II]

Major League Baseball slapped Indians pitcher Carlos Carrasco with a eight-game suspension on Friday for hitting Yankees third baseman Kevin Youkilis with a pitch in the fourth inning of Tuesday's 14-1 loss in Cleveland

 

 

Hmmm.

[Jim]

So if you unintentionally plunk a guy twice your size and he turns toward the mound, you will keep your mouth shut and ignore him?

Hell yes

[Wallerrrr]

Greinke threw at him because he has a history of crowding the plate. Did you really expect him to run away when Quentin charged the mound? Has that ever happened in the history of MLB?

 

 

 

i have no idea if it has ever happened...i do know what has happened tho, greinke has plunked quentin... you're basically saying greinke had nothing coming his was after hitting him, staring him down, jawing at him, then walking towards him as quentin is walking towrads him...wtf do you expect to happen? hand shakes? dry humping? fist bumps?

 

btw...take a look at the pic KRB posted Lawrence, he clearly is not crowding the plate
