Bisheff: Vlad Has Torn Pec

Apparently it's official. He's on the DL for a month, maybe more.

ARGH

Put Figgy in the outfield. Call up Brandon Wood today. Please.

What he said...

I see red people

Have to

I don’t like the idea of both Juan and GMJ in the same lineup everyday. Figgins takes over left, Brandon takes over third and Juan and GMJ split time at DH

It's the only option left to us. Time to throw Wood into the pool, sink or swim.

Doesn't even have to do that

We still have 4 healthy outfielders so Figgins doesn’t have to move to the outfield and Wood can just take Vlad’s spot as the every day DH so he can focus on putting up those big time power numbers.

Get well, soon, Vlad

Somebody rec'd me...

in a good way.

I just rec’d you. Welcome to the NEW SBN site, bc. You’ve been in the rafters too long.

I don’t even know what rec’d means.

Please elaborate.

I.e., somebody liked your post. You can recommend—rec—other people’s posts by clicking the “actions” link at the bottom of the person’s post and then click on “recommend.” Alternatively, if somebody has said something extremely offensive/extremely out of line, you can click on “flag” for the moderators to look at. Flagging should be a rarity, however.

RIP Nick Adenhart.

AS USUAL, the Angels underreported the injury

Initially calling it a ‘strain’. Same old BS. First they say "day—to-day’, then it’s the 15 DL, next it will be surgery and he’ll be out for several months. I feared it yesterday

by XYZ123 on Apr 17, 2009 4:43 PM PDT reply actions

They are under no obligation to do otherwise

but you are under no obligation to not call them on it – KEEP ’EM HONEST!!!

I think the gamer nature of Vladdy ...

probably had it minimized. He’s a macho fellow and I am sure he was trying to play through the pain.

I wouldn’t translate this any other way.

In May of 2005 Vlad went on the DL with a shoulder injury

He missed 18 games.

During that span, the Angels averaged 5.4 runs per game and went 10-8.

Izturiz

Starting for DH, batting third…
If they aren’t going to call up Wood of Sean-rod, at least putting Quinlan or Mattews in the starting lineup instead for Izturiz, I think.

I want to see Wood and Sean in major everyday, but it seems impossible without making a trade…

this is the PERFECT opportunity to give Wood a substantial amount of playing time

yeah, it sucks that Vlad went down, but this is exactly what Wood needs. give him the 6 weeks (give or take), let him play every day and see what happens.

Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34
