southsider2k5 Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 If nothing else, I love to see that the kid has a special kind of internal fire about playing the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy is an animal. 3-6 month rehab. Won't do full 6? Or won't need it? What ya think maybe the last 3 weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nd_city_saint787 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I see no reason why they'd "rush" him. If Hermy says he could play, he can play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 29, 2014 -> 10:53 PM) Recovering from a torn labrum is not something you want to push. Pitchers are instructed to start at 80% throwing after 3-6 months of recovery. That being said, I don't see why he couldn't DH to end the year. The labrum has much less bearing (if any) on Garcia at the plate as it does on his throwing ability. I would love for him to be able to DH the last month if he were cleared by the medical staff. EDIT: When I made the post, I wasn't thinking of the affect the broken shoulder could have on his return. I know next to nothing on the return process of a broken shoulder. The surgery was on his non-throwing shoulder I thought. The fractured would have healed a long time ago and he would be farther behind if they thought it would impact the repair. The problem he will have is that the left shoulder will need to go from a fully horizontallly flexed position (across his body) to a horizontally extended position (away from his body). So he will extend the full range of the capsule and "grind" on the labrum. The repair will need to be tight enough for support and loose enough for the range. It will also depend on the extent of the damage to the long head of the biceps tendon and what they needed to do there. Overall,if it's healed and has the full range, which I'm assuming he does as they are going to let him hit, as soon as the strength returns he should be good to go. It will just depnds on when it will be strong enough to handle the violent motion of the swing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him cooling off Abreu with a towel the other night and thought easy on the shoulder Avi lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderman Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Is he going to be able to play the field or will they just DH him? If so, Adam Dunn would need to be moved. If that's the case, they are sellers (which is likely the end result) and caution could end up being the best course of action for Garcia.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Were sellers no matter what. Unless this team catches fire and wins 16 of 20 and stays red hot then maybe we wouldn't be but I want to move Beckham, Viciedo, Dunn and Danks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 11:47 AM) You don't think the torn labrum would affect his throwing from RF? What would be a typical return time for a torn labrum from a non pitcher? It is his non throwing shoulder, I wouldnt think it would impact that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 12:03 PM) Oh that's my bad, and I knew this. Both the shoulder break and labrum are to his non-throwing, left shoulders. How many left shoulders does he have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 30, 2014 -> 12:44 PM) How many left shoulders does he have? At least 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
