Welcome to the majors wander Franco. I’ve noticed he tends to swing at the first pitch a lot...... and make outs. He’s quickly becoming a pitchers favorite. The highly touted call ups haven’t been tearing it up. Kelenic was the same.
1. I’m not an orthopedist or a physical therapist so I don’t treat many people with calf injuries.
2. Rarely are the Angels forthcoming about the true severity of any injury.
3. The calf injuries on my patients occur while doing things like walking to the fridge or tripping over their oxygen tubing so a bit of a different animal and generally less severe.
4. The Angels should have the top orthopedic doctors and therapists working with the team that should be experts in treating these injuries and therefore should be able to put together an accurate timeline for treatment and return.
Anyone whos critical of Maddon's handling of the pitching staff want to comment the Tigers managers decisions in that inning? After giving up 5 runs, 2 home runs in the inning and walking a guy he keeps him in. I think a 12 year old baseball fan would have known hes done.
Even Vlad Jr. said Ohtani is the MVP. Ohtani may end up leading the league in HR and OPS, oh yeah and hes a top rotation starter too. Not even a conversation. Again, only a health issue will keep him away.
Health is the only thing that can keep him from the MVP at this point. Good thing that Trout is no longer the best player on his own team, nice problem to have. 90 wins coming.....
It helps to pitch against this Tigers lineup Amazing how the Angels pitching staff loos good against bad teams and bad against good teams. Just need more games against the cellar dwellars.
I'm amazed that this Detroit team has even won 29 games so far. Cabrera is just as bad as Pujols, I wonder what the fans take on him these days is. Hence the coming sweep.
