Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Jeremy Hefner has elected to return to HSS for admittance in the Double Tommy John Club. TJ surgery big shot Dr. James Andrews will be doing the cutting in place of Dr. David Altchek, who did the honors last time.
MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Isn't that like going to the mechanic who didn't completely fix your car the first time you took it to him?Later
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 9, 2014 Author Posted October 9, 2014 I'm not sure I was clear.Dr. Altchek performed the first surgery. Dr. Andrews will be performing this one.Different mechanic, as it were.
Ceetar Grand Central Contributor Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Sometimes, the car is just a lemon.Good luck Hefner.

TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Lucas Duda will be forbidden from swinging a bat for a couple of days after developing a left oblique strain.Evidently, this has been an issue for a couple of weeks. *gulp*
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Baseball was much better before players had obliques.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted February 24, 2015 Author Posted February 24, 2015 Now we know why the first shots of Cuddyer working out show him wearing a first baseman's glove.
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks A LOT, Mike Barwis.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah! Bring back Mackey Shillstone!
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Wasn't it last off-season that Big Luc broke something or other while moving furniture?It's Feb 24th, I'm declaring this to be a non-issue.
TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Per Rubin:Lucas Duda (intercostal muscle strain) swung a bat for the first time in three weeks.
G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Josh Edgin in for MRI following elbow and general left arm discomfort following diminished velocity in yesterday's otherwise meaningless game.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted March 10, 2015 Author Posted March 10, 2015 Edgy sure doesn't shine in the spring, do he?And things are suddenly looking up for Scott Rice.
TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Hammy whammy delays Parnell's returnParnell worries me big time in 2015. I'm not sure his health can be relied upon at all.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Edgin back to NY to meet with doctors about his elbow discomfort.Paging Dr. Andrews...
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 I agree that Gee is going to be good insurance. But against Edgin, least of all.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted March 12, 2015 Author Posted March 12, 2015 A year and a week ago, Anthony DiComo was first (I think) in reporting that Bobby Parnell had a partially torn MCL, and they would make a determination on which way to proceed in the coming weeks. They determined to pitch through it, and then were forced to go another direction after opening day.Today, Anthony DiComo is first (I think) in reporting that Josh Edgin has a stretched MCL, and they will make a determination on which way to proceed in the coming weeks.
Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Sounds like rest should be the thing, unless it's more of a 'stretch' than they're saying, youknowwhatI'msayin? #HospitalForSpeciousStoriesOE: Or, maybe since Tommy John is on the table, this may be a little beyond rest.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Zack Wheeler = "sore" elbowVic Black = MRI on shoulderJosh Edgin = Getting second opinion from (say it with me people) Dr. James AndrewsWheeler it is said "will not need" an MRI on the hinge (how 'bout getting one anyway?) and is expected to miss just one start (today's). �This is something that he experienced during the course of last season as well, and it was managed,� Alderson said. �That is what is expected this season.� (Puma - NY Post)
Ceetar Grand Central Contributor Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Wheeler got the MRI in...January? So they really don't think there's anything more to see.
TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 On second thought...http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/mets/post/_/id/98646/wheeler-sent-for-mri-after-all

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted March 15, 2015 Author Posted March 15, 2015 Wheeler went for the MRI after all. Clean as heck, according to Terry.That boy is going to start glowing in the dark.
TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Josh Edgin to have elbow surgeryUgh.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 No word on the results of the Wheeler MRI?
