[tvsportscaster]

From Braves Twitter: Jordan Walden to the 15-day DL with a strained hamstring. Ian Thomas recalled from Gwinnett.

Dude's a walking medical chart.

He strained a hamstring walking out to the pen last night???

Damn.

 

[thewupk]

at least it's not arm related

But I got hammered a few weeks ago when I said that Walden wasn't consistant enough or durable enough to be counted upon to be the primary setup man and carry a big work load. Yeah, I was SO WRONG about that.

The guy can't even walk down to the bullpen without getting hurt.

OTOH, hopefully Thomas with some experience graps this chance by the horns now and Avilan steps up, with Venter's coming back, couple be a good threesome of lefties in the pen for when Wood goes back to the rotation.

Damn.

Nowhere was this reported. He actually slipped going down the steps.

Mike Hampton is concerned about this guy's inability to stay healthy.

The injury was backdated to Monday so it probably occurred then.

Hopefully he's ready when eligible to return.

An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.

A walk to the bullpen can **** up your hamstring, though.

Not the best news I heard today.
