Non-Jed Lowrie Injuries 2020

[LWFS]

Yay! First odd as fuck spring training bit of business! And https://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/mets/seth-lugo-broken-pinky-toe-1.41948768Lugo, no less!

[bLOCKQUOTE]The Mets were dealt their first weird injury of camp Tuesday when an X-ray revealed that reliever Seth Lugo has a fractured left pinky toe. He will take “probably” three days off from throwing, manager Luis Rojas said, and won't participate in at least the early exhibition games, which start Saturday.[/bLOCKQUOTE]

[Lefty Specialist]

Guessing he stubbed it on some hotel furniture.

[Edgy MD]

Why do I get the impression that Lugo's toe could really affect Lowrie's availability going forward?

[Centerfield]

Jammed shoulder for JD Davis. MRI tomorrow. He says his level of concern is 2.5-3 out of 10.

[G-Fafif]

Brodie says no damage, reassessed in a week.



No, really.

[G-Fafif]

Nimmo scratched for cardiac screening that doesn't sound at all alarming.

[Centerfield]

Brodie says no damage, reassessed in a week. No, really.

To nitpick, no "new" damage. They found a labrum tear that they labeled as "old". I don't know how they can know that it was old since it wasn't detected until today and JD Davis had no idea he had it.



And that doesn't sound suspicious at all.

[G-Fafif]

J.D. is fine. And will be missed.

[Edgy MD]

Well, a cardiac furlough is ... concerning.



And Lowrie himself has yet to appear in a game.

It can often be deciphered whether an injury is a recent one vs one that has been there for a while.

Nice thread title.

True, but we are talking about a Met

[Centerfield]

Nimmo undergoing more cardiac tests.



Spring training is basically just six weeks of crossed fingers and fluff stories.

[Edgy MD]

The listing on Nimmo's official condition has changed from "crossed fingers" to "fluff story," as he gets clearance to go get 'em.

[kcmets]

Glad Nimmo's ok but jeez cardiac screening for young athletes is scary.

[Frayed Knot]

It could be worse, the BoSox have (supposed) ace Chris Sale missing the early part of the season while he recovers from pneumonia (dude, the old folk's home called and they want their disease back) plus

a Taiwanese pitcher who can't attend training camp because he's currently under quarantine to make sure he doesn't have coronavirus!



No reports yet of either whooping cough or tuberculosis but I'll keep checking.

[kcmets]

Are you just elaborating or correcting me? Maybe scary was a little strong, the

message was more glad he's ok and not having health issues.



Hope that continues and that Matt has a speedy road ahead of him too.

I look at the Stanton and Judge injuries and wonder if they are juiced

[G-Fafif]

Conforto to NY for Altchek exam after tweaking his side making a catch in a game that didn't count. FLA MRI not enough, apparently.

Heard that tonight (WFAN?). How does a major league player hurt himself making a catch when it doesn't involve diving for a ball or running into a wall?

Has anyone heard if that is an old fashioned "Get a massage and hit the hot tub, you'll be fine" kind of tweak, or is it a Jed Lowrie "OH F**K NO!" kind of tweak?

[Edgy MD]

The same way the same player dislocated his shoulder following through on a swing. Exertion can lead to stuff.



You can injure yourself taking a poo. I heard that from some other person who is totally not me.

Fmann? (J/K)

If you keep those muscles properly trained, and exert them, then you should be fine. This is just what I've learned in my life.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Elvis, man.

[G-Fafif]

Right oblique strain for Conforto.

[MFS62]

Oy!

[Edgy MD]

Where would you say the line is on Opening Day?



MetsRosterCentral currently has Céspedes, Conforto, and Lowrie penciled in for the opener, but it looks like those three are going to look a lot like Jarret Parker, Eduardo Nuñez, and Luis Guillorme.

[G-Fafif]

I miss being concerned with the status of Michael Conforto's oblique.
