He is done with the WBC after hurting his right oblique..will he ever stay healthy for a whole season? over/under on how many games he misses this year..I'm goin 25

 

[cyhiphopp]

I'll take the over. I am surprised he would play in the WBC with his injury history.

Better be over or I am going to have a hard time watching my Braves

 

[mj4cy]

Right O-blique...........Right ******* OBLIQUE!

you mean the under? b/c question was how many games he would miss

and i say over 25 games

 

[no2cyclones]

Definitely over 25, without a doubt. He has to take his sporadic days off, too, so you have to factor that in. I'm thinking the Braves would be lucky to have him for 120 games.

This is a shame. He is truly one of the great guys of baseball. I hope he can stay healthy.

BTW, that was a sweet game last night huh?

Oh my gosh yeah. David Wright apparently is getting flack for not being a clutch hitter in New York...hmm... :wink:

Also, unsung player of the game: Shane Victorino. Helluva game, and he got almost no credit.

Over. They will probably sit him quite a few games even without injury given his age/injury history.

Victorino reminds my of Dykstra when he played in Philly, only without the 'roids (hopefully). The guy is tough and just flat out makes plays. Those are the type of guys that I like to root for.

I did mean under! Doh

Where's cybsball when you need him?!

What? I'm here... I "hope" chipper plays about 145 games missing the occasional planned day off... He could play through what he has right now if he wanted to...

Victorino is my favorite player in MLB right now and it's not really that close... Love that guy. If the USA pulls off the Classic win it will be because of guys like him and DiRosa....

Not gonna lie--I was kind of confused when the Cubs pulled the trigger on that deal that sent DeRosa to the Indians. I'm going to make the call right now that the Tribe has a pretty solid season, with guys like Sizemore and DeRosa leading the way.
