Travis Out for Season ending Surgery

[Stangstag]

I don't see Tulo being productive with his current injury in my opinion. I mean maybe if they get to the ALCS but at that point it'll be tough.

 

Exactly my thoughts. I actually DONT want Tulo back this year because I feel like he will be penciled into the lineup because of his name while providing negative value on both sides of the ball. I just can't see Tulo being able to play well enough with an injured shoulder.

How did you embed the tweet? I've been trying to figure it out. Twitter newbie.

 

you get the number from the "details" tab on the tweet.

 

Edit sorry it's already covered. Well done team!

There's just so many muscles attatched to the scapula, it's ridiculous to think he's coming back. The Jays are masking up hysteria, lol.

You're ussually one of the most level headed and positive guys on the board. If you think he is done, he is probably done.

Plus Spanky's probably had that injury himself

[dineke]

so many wikipedia doctors in here lol

Yup. smashed glasses and broken scapula's from the ol bar scraps.

little known fact about spanky is that he would've gone to the show (hockey version) if he hadn't punched out a ref in philly

 

good times

The alleged facts that he was an excellent hockey player and also that he punched a ref do not surprise me at all.

[GD]

Yeah same here. I'd be more surprised if those weren't true

Never, lol. My sister's an RMT, not a doctor, when I asked her about 2 -3 weeks she laughed her ass off and said try 2/3 months. He gone. She did mention that he has the best doctors in NA though, so, it might be possible in 5 to 6 weeks.

I feel like AA know's Tulo won't be back, he's just scared to admit it to media.

Hence my post above.

Maybe there should be a separate thread for Tulowitzki's injury? I posted this is the general thread earlier today - http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/blue-jays-tulowitzki-i-feel-like-im-making-strides/ . Tulowitzki gives a great interview (there is an embedded video in the story but it takes time to load). It doesn't sound promising.

[Stangstag]

Hence my post above.

 

Yeah. Its great to be optimistic, but we also have to be realistic. Nobody recovers from this injury in 2-3 weeks, let alone recovering enough to swing a f***ing baseball bat at an elite level.

Some good news for Devon Travis.

TRAVIS SURGERY

 

Second baseman Devon Travis underwent exploratory surgery on his left shoulder on Wednesday that revealed no structural damage. The Blue Jays expect him to be back to full strength for spring training in February.

 

During the procedure, a cyst in the joint was drained

, but there appeared to be no other obvious reason for the discomfort that has kept the rookie sidelined since the end of July.

The shoulder was also cleaned up.

 

The injury had its genesis in a hard ground ball that struck Travis on the collarbone in May, causing a deep bone bruise. He missed more than a month at that time, then went back on the disabled list in July and never returned, though he spent a lot of time trying to rehab the injury.

He won't be healed... But it sounds like it's one of those injuries that's it's ok to play through if you can handle some pain. Cortisone shot and let's go!!!

 

Playoffs, here we come!

Devon Travis and Troy Tulowitzki are two different players (physically and in playing style)

 

There is another thread for Troy Tulowitzki - http://www.bluejaysmessageboard.com/threads/5433-Pray4Tulo-thread/page15, not that it matters, just saying
