 Shoulders, Shoulders, Shoulders
Thinking some more about the Giants injury issues, I notice an alarming trend.
Jason Schmidt is having shoulder issues. So is Robb Nen. So is Edgardo Alfonzo. So is Tony Torcato. (Bonds, a noted nonconformist, rebelled and developed a stiff back instead. The only reason Hammonds didn't hurt his shoulder is because he ducked and the pitch hit his thumb instead.)
Weird. Remember that week in August 2002 when the entire Giants starting outfield suffered pulled hamstrings? This reminds me of that.
Of course, the Giants rebounded nicely from the hamstring pull-a-demic, nearly winning the World Series two months later. So if you're superstitious--and let's face it, if you're a baseball fan you have to be, at least a little--then really, this rash of shoulder problems is a GOOD thing....
Ouch....
I pulled my kvetching muscle yesterday; I think I just pulled my rationalizing muscle too...
Ouch.
Seriously, tomorrow I'll come up with some cheerier things to think about.
