Blazek to DL with Right Hand Fracture -- Odd Timing of Circumstances?

[Jim Goulart]

Blazek to DL with Right Hand Fracture, Goforth Recalled

 

This looks bad, how will they spin this? Two days after surrendering a walk-off HR? Check for dents in the Wrigley lockerroom.

 

Unfortunate if this was anger-related, but the timing is coincidentally just too much to think otherwise.

 

And yes, that's blatantly unfair until we hear more, but...

Perhaps he's had something for a little while that he just fessed up about or the team just discovered. He hasn't been pitching well of late.

Eh, people do stupid things all the time. As long as he's healthy for 2015 and continues to get outs.

Keeping in mind we don't know the circumstances yet (it could be a salad tong incident, for all we know), but would you have felt the same way if the Brewers were contending right now and we do learn it was self-inflicted in anger?

Ha! I was just about to say something witty about salad tongs

[3and2Fastball]

I blame Lucroy's suitcase

[pogokat]

I blame Ruben Quevedo's wife...

 

Of course, now after five minutes of searching, I can't actually find any proof that she was the one that beat up a good player in the parking lot... Someone help me out here... Who was that?

 

Whatever... I blame Ray King's George Forman grill

Via MLB.com's Brandon Curry --

 

Michael Blazek's right hand fracture is a "mystery" to him when it comes to how it occurred. He didn't try and knock out a wall, by the way.

 

Via Andrew Gruman --

 

Michael Blazek said he has a small fracture at the bottom of his fourth metacarpal. Noticed it while playing long toss. No surgery or pins.

[Jim Goulart]

Via Tom H. --

 

#Brewers Michael Blazek assured us he did not punch anything after HR other night. Isn't sure how fractured bone in hand. Blazek isn't sure if he will miss rest of season. To be determined.

[Matt Breen]

I suspect that someone gave him the dreaded he Bone-Breaking Curse. Crabbe? Goyle? Malfoy?

 

Ossis Effergo!

check the visitors' clubhouse at wrigley field for half-torn phone books.

Alex Sanchez?

Team record wouldn't make a difference to me.

It would make a big difference to me.

 

My level of disgust is directly tied to the players ability and how it impacts the season.

 

CC in 2008.....outrage meter 10

 

Kyle Lohse in 2015....outrage meter 0

[Dragonbait]

Did he have a dream about spiders and fall through a glass table?

[LouisEly]

Broke it by accidentally getting kicked by a teammate while horsing around during pre-game warmup jogging.
