Dropping Like Flies

After having a relatively injury-free first month of the regular season, the injury bug is biting hard among top players and prospects. In the last few days Cole Sands, Joe Ryan and top prospects Walker Jenkins and Emmanuel Rodriguez have either been placed on the IL or left games because of injury.

It’s too soon to know how long any of the players will be out, although Sands has at least ten more days to stay on the IL. Mick Abel seems to be progressing, but David Festa suffered a setback, so their availability dates arent known.

Really not good .... Here's hoping these aren't major issues.

We can have a larger discussion in a few days after we have more info about Ryan but the decision to “go for it” by TP is looking like a catastrophic mistake for the franchise.

And 'going for it' had a likely ceiling of 75-80 wins.
