joejoedairy Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Hopefully it is truly only 6 weeks. If so, he'll only miss a little of the actual season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undergoing MRI to determine extent of tear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Since he's on the 40-man, won't he accrue service time for going on the major league dl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only get service time on the 25 man roster, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Sounds like Tommy John surgery is likely, but if it doesn't look terrible on the MRI they might try to rehab it before putting him on the operating table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanne Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 “Micker Adolfo reported with some soreness in his arm after some drills the other day,” Hahn said. “We had it examined and unfortunately it revealed a sprain in his ulnar collateral ligament and a strain in his flexor tendon. While that is never good news, the positive side of it is that the tear is on the proximal side, which our doctors have explained to me means rehabilitation has a higher likelihood of working than the normal circumstances where a guy has a UCL tear or tendon tear.” https://theathletic.com/251598/2018/02/23/m...bering-setback/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 QUOTE (hi8is @ Feb 23, 2018 -> 07:36 PM) Paging ptact... stat. Don't think there's much good news here other than that they think they can rehab it without TJ. At best he's missing a critical 2-3 months of development time. Bigger picture (and problem) is that Micker seems to be put together with duct tape and zip ties. I'd be curious to here what ptac thinks but I do think that "injury prone" is a thing -- and micker is injury prone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
