fathom Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 That means we'll likely miss him both times we play him. I won't shed a tear about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Will it actually end up being much shorter, like Coco Crisp's injury? Or maybe even longer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 I should say Comcast Sports Net says "could" be 8-10 weeks. Typical Cub organization crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Maybe they can make a trade for Carlos Pena now? Maybe my vision was skewed with the wrong Chicago team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aboz56 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 So the timeframe is correct. 6 weeks he is out. Then most likely 2-4 to get back to playing form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Very tough luck for Lee and the Cubs. I hate them with a passion. But you never want to see anybody go down. Now Cubs fans have even more reason to despise Furcal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
