At this point, it's "can you throw strikes?". Too bad we pissed off Nolan, he could probably throw a couple fastballs still, likely faster than Grienke.

I don't want to say that I LIKE him..... moreso realize that he's the kind of guy you love when he's on your team, and hate when he's on the other team. I can respect that.astros4545 said:Who likes Bauer?tjack16 said:

I am hearing bursa sac fluid in the shoulder is the issue for Lance McCullers Jr. A very unlucky injury, something a player has no control over it. I am hoping he should be back soon.

Anybody have a dumbed down version of this injury? No idea what that is
Quote:
Bursitis/Shoulder Bursitis
Definition
A bursa is a small, fluid-filled sac that serves to reduce friction between a bone and the surrounding soft tissues such as skin, muscles, ligaments and tendons. There are 160 bursae in the body, with the major bursae located in the large shoulder, hip, elbow and knee joints. Bursitis is the inflammation of a bursa.
In baseball players, shoulder bursitis is common in the subacromial bursa between the rotator cuff tendons and the acromion, or shoulder blade. The subdeltoid bursa, located under the deltoid muscle (the rounded contour at the top of the shoulder), may also become inflamed, but it is less common. Shoulder bursitis can be caused by a trauma, but it is more often an overuse injury caused by repeated minor trauma, such as repetitively throwing a baseball. It is often associated with impingement or tendonitis of the rotator cuff tendons.
Typical recovery time
With rest, mild bursitis can be resolved in 2-3 weeks. Cortisone injections into the bursa sac may reduce inflammation. If the condition becomes chronic, however, the inflamed bursa sac may be surgically removed and, over time, a new one will form in its place. Recovery from surgery is typically 6-8 weeks.
Yordan Alvarez has been scratched from the Astros’ lineup tonight because of what the team is describing as "right wrist soreness."

James Click said RHP Josh James is throwing off the mound in Florida and is a couple of weeks away from being ready to pitch in the Major Leagues.

Click on Javier to bullpen: “This is about our roster right now and trying to maximize our chances to win games right now.”

Pedro Báez is still not throwing off a mound, according to general manager James Click. Asked if Báez could contribute to the team before the All-Star break, Click said "we're a little too far away from where we can assess if that's a possibility."

Alvarez out of tonight's lineup with wrist soreness. Was just asking Dusty Baker about Alvarez's struggles at the plate (0-for-15 streak). Baker said Alvarez is fouling back pitches he normally would hit fair and pitchers are more relaxed against him because they sense he's cold.

Astros bullpen catcher Javier Bracamonte just brought over Bryan Abreu, Cristian Javier and Enoli Paredes to meet (I assume) Albert Pujols during Dodgers BP. Pujols is holding court with them now.
