Cabrerra leaves game with injury, may be out a while

Submitted by Rodriguesqe on

Something with his calf taking off on a 3-2 count. Pulled up lame and barely made it off the field with a severe limp.

Oye.

Could be worse though - I thought he might be done for the year. And really, as great as he is the fate of this team hangs on our pitching getting it together. With the Martinezes going we should be ok offensively. I wonder if they'll try mcann at first?

is Ausmus, after seeing his comment earlier this morning about the two pitchers called up from the minor leagues. Can't quote it directly right now, but essentially he said he knew nothing about either pitcher.

It seemed very reminiscent of the Brady Hoke comment, "aware but not fully aware".

but i am sure DD can find a lefty 1B playing backup duty on a team and give up next to nothing.  i think you have to play out the month of july before you start selling.  hell, they are only 1 1/2 games out of the wild card right now.

And by the time Miggy gets back, they could very well be 10 games under .500. You don't take the best hitter in the American League out of the lineup for a month and a half, when you have a .500 team to start with, and expect everything to be hunky-dory. 

The Titanic just hit the iceberg.

I think they could rally around this. This team has been underperforming all year. And if you put any stock in WAR, Cabrera missing 30 games should only cost us a game or 2.

The last time he missed serious time I seem to recall the team couldn't lose with him out.
