Adam Everett to miss 4-8 weeks

[GrandPa]

It wasn't quite like the Joe Theismann snap, or the Cincinnati lineman in that Super Bowl, but a collision with Carlos Lee broke the fibula of Houston SS Adam Everett, which will produce a hole in the steady defense, but will add at least 50-60 points of BA production from the spot.

Painful to watch though. Good kid, all glove, no stick, and now could use a pegleg from the Kap'ns storage chest.

Thanks for the update GrandPa...was unaware of this...that will be a huge loss for them defensively....

Happened in the 4th inning today.

ouch... great glove that kids got

[Kaptain]

Thats a nasty bone to break----hate to see anyone get hurt, but at such a young age, just starting his career........

He'll be back, but it's gonna take a lots of work......

I have 2 extra Peg legs in my Cabin, and you're welcome to use one of em.......The leg was carved out of a tree from the "Fibulus Islands" right off the Greece Coast.....damn hard word....kapt

[GrandPa]

Thanks for the kind offer, Skip, but for now I'll wait and see if the offensive boost trumps the drop in defensive efficiency, and perhaps ends up being a blessing.

Just the same, keep one of 'em on ice, or no, wait, that's probably not the preferred storage method, but just an expression, ......bah, heck, ------you know what I mean.
