Chourio to Miss At Least One WBC Game - UPDATE (Sore Hand from a HBP)

[Jim Goulart]

OK, so kind of important #Brewers fans learn more here - "Possible sensitive injury for Venezuela. Everything points to Jackson Chourio not being in the lineup against the Netherlands due to alleged physical issues. Initially, it was said that he would only miss the first game, but now the concern is growing that the absence could extend to more games in the World Baseball Classic."

"Jackson Chourio will not play Friday against the Netherlands due to physical issues, sources report to @hsmdeportes"

Shut him down.  He's too important to our season...

Send him back to training camp where we can get a proper diagnosis and keep an eye on what we are dealing with.

Murphy says he’s fine

What exactly constitutes "proper diagnosis"? It's a soft tissue contusion, aka a bruise.

Unfortunately with today's Chourio IL news, it looks like TURBO may have been right about the HBP on March 4 being more serious than the reports from Team Venezuela.

Baseball once again demonstrating Turbo's cynicism is just realism, since 1999 at this point back on the ESPN boards?
