    It was worth the wait!

    I’m officially concerned that Martin has either a labrum or a rotator cuff tear.

    • NMR says:

      Wouldn’t that be pretty easy to diagnose?

      • 21sthebest says:

        With an MRI? I would think so. Why hasn’t he had one yet? Maybe because they wanted to see what would happen after a few days. If I have this right, they don’t want to go around giving MRI’s unless they think it’s necessary.

        • NMR says:

          I obviously don’t have any more knowledge than the next guy on the bus, but I think they’d be pretty darn quick to check up on their $17m investment.

            You would think. Maybe the trainers are all over it, know exactly where his problem is, and it isn’t the location of the labrum or rotator cuff.

    • Dom says:

      I think it’s safe to say that was a good signing.

  • NMR says:

    Was Jose doing his offseason training in Miami by any chance?

    - They need MORE $#%^%$ types??? Haven’t you read my posts?

    “Promised myself I wouldn’t spend this whole trip bashing Florida”
    - Why not? Go for it. Gotta be right on target. I mean, it must be why no one comes here anymore.

    “This is the Internet at some of its worst.”
    - Again, haven’t you read my posts?

    “Holiday In Cambodia”
    - I prefer Turtle “Crick”

    “Get back to being a lot more annoying”
    - Again, haven’t you read my posts?

    I predict that by July, we’ll complain that Tabata is too muscular for baseball.

    I’ll leave you with a final thought.
