Aches and Pains 2020

Ok, if the MRI showed no damage, what is the diagnosis now?

Bring back El Oso Blanco.

Discomfort, of course.

Reminds me of Cameron Drew, who also had superstardom derailed by bad knees.

The Astros welcomed reigning AL Rookie of the Year Yordan Alvarez back for one game before knee troubles forced him from the lineup and eventually landed him on the injured list. Now, manager Dusty Baker tells Ross Villarreal of Sports Talk 790 in Houston that the slugger’s season is in jeopardy (Twitter link). “ Yordan Alvarez , it looks like he’s done, maybe for the year,” Baker said of his designated hitter.

He said maybe. You gotta hold on hope.

Partial tear of the patellar tendon, season ending surgery for next week.

2020 continues its undefeated streak against hope

2020 would have blasted Yavin out of the way, obliterated the rebel base, and been on its merry way inside of a minute.

2020, the year that keeps on giving… you a swift and hard kick in the nuts

Pull the plug.

Curious whether Yordan’s injury is a new tear or an old one they are only now finding.

Good question Jim. My thought is this goes back to last year.

God this year sucks.

Bregman pull up limp tonight. Out of the game. Looked like a hammy, and looked bad.

Of course. Good grief, what a year.

We still haven’t found out what injury Altuve is trying to play through. We’ll likely find out when the offending body part falls off…

“Phantom limb discomfort”

Sick bat.

Even as a kid I always wondered why the Empire didn’t just blast Yavin instead of waiting for the moon to orbit. Made no sense.

All of these injuries make you wonder if they were ready to go as far as conditioning. They were probably ready after spring training in March. Then you have the down time from March to July. This just isn’t a good year.

It’s almost like baseball players prepare for a very specific schedule every year and they were completely disrupted or something…
