Probably retroactive to Saturday I believe?

 

[Lville21]

Jaime back up? Can he be called back up this soon?

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Not sure if he can be called up that quickly. I am sure we hear about the corresponding move later on tonight.

 

[Carp]

Guessing this means no HR derby for the Bear

 

[Heyward]

I saw if all goes well, Carp will be back Wednesday.

Is this really a 2 week thing or is it longer?

 

[CyYoung31]

A bulging disc is not going to be easy to get rid of.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

See you after the winter is over.

Possibly longer. They will have to wait and see how he responds to the epidural steroid injection. Based on my experience, even if you can get over this, these things tend to recur. The good news is that this isn't in his lower back where his weight plays a greater role. The bad news is, if he ever has to have surgery on this, they will have to collapse a lung to get to it.

Meh, I'd rather have Jaime back than Carpenter.

Theres a list of players a mile long I want back before Carpenter.

Chad Paronto is waiting by the phone. Chris Resop is throwing in the back yard. Tyler Yates is emailing his resume to Wren.

I noticed you left out Dan Kolb.

Would rather sign up Retisma.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Bringing up the Klobster should be a lifetime ban. I think I developed PTSD from watching him attempt to pitch.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Disappointed that nobody mentioned John Hudek.

Chris Resop was actually on somebody's team recently. Looked it up, is on Boston's AAA team, pitched for Oakalnd last year. Only 31. Wouldn't have thought that was possible.

Who?

 

[Julio3000]

Bob Wickman is kicking the horribly disfigured 60-year-old prostitute out of his bed, lighting a Winston, and trying to remember his former agent's name.

Gattis will be out , my best guess at least 6 weeks. 2-3 weeks the bulge will be gone, it will take another 3 to get to 80% strength in the tissue supporting the dislodged disc.
