I pull against the Yankees every chance I get, but that made my stomach sick.

Damn. Is a ruptured patellar a career ending injury?

Remimds me of Adam greenberg for the Marlins a few years ago. Got drilled in the head in his first career AB, never really had another chance after that. Believe that was his name

Same injury that Jimmy Graham had. It's a long road ahead.

Damn that must be really serious if they're doing surgery that quickly.

I guess, I just read they were planning the surgery that night. Maybe Chicago has one of the best doctors and he/she could perform it then?

This is a crushing situation. It could turn out to be a great comeback story or into Moonlight status.

Severed my patellar tendon 2 years ago and I still have issues with it. Sucks.
