MLB Trade Rumors and Dick ‘n’ Roy are reporting that there is no new injury to Kirilloff, that he got a cortisone shot and that the club says he can work through the pain and play.
Hmmmm, this is saying it is chronic injury. I just got a cortisone shot myself. At least for me, there are no guarantees of even modest improvement so on balance I don’t know if I’d call it positive. I guess he’ll try to come back, but obviously this might be a career threatening injury.
