Eloy shutdown until spring

Anyone worried about his durability? No doubt he will hit but he never reached 500 PAs yet. Never had a big injury but always one or two smaller things like an oblique or ham strain per year, a little bit like stanton or even harper.

Of course if he hits like projected he will be good even if he plays only 130 games a year but i would rather like to not see a pattern there.

Maybe he needs to improve his training, stretching or warm up routine.

Similar to Zack Burdi getting sat down for a "general soreness" with a few weeks left in AZL.  

My gut feeling is both players got precisely the work they and the club wanted them to get in.  Problem is these leagues don't necessarily want players to come and go as they please so you have to sugar-coat it.

Weren't some people on this board posting last week about why is he playing now?

Yes they were just like they post on not letting Robert attempt so many steals. You have to let players do their thing, That's part of development. After all the injuries last year some are going to want to be overly protective.

Just to be clear, it doesn't sound like this was very serious at all, but it was more timing based.

 

I would not read into this very much. Jimenez should be 100% for spring training, and then his several week AAA stint before he's patrolling the outfield in Chicago.

Yeah, that was worded very poorly by Bruce. He was shut down since he has a week left to play. Even if he finished this stretch healthy, he’s still not doing any thing until Spring. 

That’s Bruce getting cute with a flashy headline 

To be fair we dont know if he is only injured for a week. The strain could easily take a month to heal but it is just one week because there was only one week left to play.

Eloy did have several strains already in his career. This is not a huge worry but at least a slight concern also for his future position (maybe they DH him to safe his legs a little if he gets another strain).
