Yeah- these elbow pain things never turn out serious. It isn’t as if these situations often end in anything dramatic like having a surgery where they completely replace a vital ligament with one removed from your leg or a cadaver. I’m sure it’s no worry…

Of course they will, just like last yr. You can’t take other teams over-paid castaways and expect them to suddenly turn it around and play lights out for your team. You also can’t put a price of chemistry, which the Dodgers don’t have. That Boston trade added to this Greinke contract = god awful management by the front office. Not to mention the Hanley trade on top of that. This team has killed itself with bad trades and god awful contracts. So much wasted money and resources and for what? A team that didn;t make the playoffs last yr and will miss again this yr?

Thanks Doc flosox,

First time caller, It burns like fire when I urinate and smells like cooked ham. Could it be my prostate?

Yea, well he better learn to start throwing left handed, Dodgers are less than a week away from announcing he will need Tommy John.

correction…the new ligament sometimes comes from the same forearm. Had that confused.

Thanks Google!

Dude’s toast…sorry, but true. Forearm and elbow pain are the first indicators of Tommy John; that’s where the ligament resides. He may be able to ride it out for a bit, but eventually its going to happen.

Just do it now and be ready for next year.

Wish the Angels had been able to hold onto Greinke, but I don’t think he is worth $147 million. Dodgers still got a great pitcher though, the top of their rotation is stellar.

Probably nothing serious but just another reminder how scary these contracts can be with pitchers.

What am I saying, the Dodgers probably didn’t even blink.
