Dolfan in NYC Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Aaron Judge had an MRI done on his abdomen because he's feeling a lot of discomfort when he swings. He said it came back clean and he should be ready for Opening Day. (But keep an eye on this space) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 Per Aaron Boone today Gerrit Cole is having more testing today Nothing definitive to announce Will be a couple more days before "everyone weighs in" Difficult to envision Cole starting Opening Day I will probably regret saying this but it sounds like it isn't "Oh fuck - Tommy John time" but it also sounds like at least a couple of weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 Well their first choice was to connect back with the White Sox and see if they can pry Dylan Cease away However - reports say that the latest offer still doesn't contain the name "Spencer Jones" so Chicago probably hung up the phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Gerrit Cole will miss 1-2 months (assuming the surgeon doesn't end up finding something worse) To quote from the article Several Yankees doctors and ElAttrache have viewed Cole’s preliminary film, and while none has detected a tear in his ulnar collateral ligament, there’s enough concern about the ligament that ElAttrache has suggested an in-person visit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 Gerrit Cole will due non-surgical rehab on his elbow (which as the recommendation from the doctors) 1-2 months is the speculated time he will miss Of course, the ominous thing for Yankee fans is the way all the stories are written "won't need surgery... for now" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimLivingston Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) That list is essentially my life force. Blake Snell is a Giant with half his 2024 salary deferred as a signing bonus in 2026, 2/62 with an opt out. Some luxury tax fuckery but he has a home.

Earl Wilson was a power hitter who hit 7 homers in a season twice. His 7 home runs in 1968 were 9th on the team for the Tigers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostinube Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I didn't know Fanatics made gloves too. That error was brought to you by the Secret Committee to Get Shohei One More At Bat Before All the KIds In Asia Have to Go to Bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
