What Fresh Hell...

...is going on with the Red Sox and injuries? At this rate, by the All-Star break, they won't have a team anymore! Add Manny Delcarmen and Tek to the bloated DL. MDC's having elbow trouble and apparently that's why he couldn't buy an out last night. Tek apparently broke his foot a la Pedey. This is just unreal! How are all these guys getting hurt in such a short period of time? There's getting to be too many injuries to chalk up to coincidence, but what else could account for the players dropping like flies? This is out of control!

They may have the third best record in baseball now, but I don't see how they can possibly keep that level of performance up with someone going down each day. Before long, it will be an all-AAA team trying to compete in the toughest division in the major leagues. It's gotten way beyond the point where a big trade will help. I know that injuries happen in baseball, but not this many all at once. In the course of one week, they've lost a second baseman, two catchers, a starting pitcher and a reliever. MAKE IT STOP!!!! Wrap the entire team in bubble-wrap and foam rubber if you have to, but NO MORE INJURIES!!!!
