Injuries to the lower extremeties (above all others)…is the hardest of injuries to try to heal/recover from while playing.
Put him on the DL. One month…two months…as long as it takes.

Skip really has no place on the roster. He would even be the 5th OF or the best bench MIF.

If not, it bodes well for Matheny’s success going forward….

returning earlier than planned from his rehab assignment in Memphis.

Nothing verified just yet, so all is just speculation to this point.

Matt Carpenter has been a great substitute, so I see no reason why Berkman shouldn’t be careful.

Seems like a good time to go ahead and let him heal, if that is needed. No sense reinjuring it all season.
