Comments on: Did The Twins Know Matt Garza Was Injured? http://betweeninnings.com/2008/04/did-the-twins-know-matt-garza-was-injured/ chatter from the cheap seats Fri, 04 Jul 2008 01:30:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 By: WV http://betweeninnings.com/2008/04/did-the-twins-know-matt-garza-was-injured/#comment-94 WV Thu, 10 Apr 2008 04:58:19 +0000 http://betweeninnings.com/2008/04/did-the-twins-know-matt-garza-was-injured/#comment-94 Yeah, an inflamed nerve seems like something difficult to detect. It also doesn't seem that serious, but again, I'm a grad student in literature and can barely balance my checkbook, let alone make an educated guess on the workings of modern medicine. Cool post though. Garza's 8ER in 8IP is making us look good in any event. Yeah, an inflamed nerve seems like something difficult to detect.

I don't know how extensive a physical is for these guys if they appear to be in good health. Do they do MRI's and scans of every part of a guy just to make sure? If this is a nerve thing that comes and goes, I don't know how they could find such a thing. Thanks for stopping by WV! Sounds like this is something Garza kept to himself so nothing was documented.

In any case, that trade worked out pretty well for us tonight with Harris and Young putting up some solid ABs.

I hope it turns out to be nothing more than a 15 day stint on the DL. You never want to see a guy go down to injury and you always want to play a team at their best. I wish Garza and the Rays the best, they have a young and exciting team. Yeah, that’s a bummer for Garza and the Rays. I hope it turns out to be nothing more than a 15 day stint on the DL.

I was really a big fan of his and sorry to see him leave Minnesota. If it turns into something serious that's also really bad luck for Tampa Bay, who finally seem like they're starting to head in the right direction as an organization. Wow…too bad for Garza.
