yeah, not clear from this thread when did he have/will have injection

when did the feel like something was wrong

Why wasn't this treated months ago

I'm sure there are reason just seems crazy that this would happen on first day of ST

Maybe he re hurt it.

From what I gather, it appears Buck and Dan don't think he'll be out that long. I'd get a few more guys just to be safe in case this drags out.

Everyone on this thread about the O's season right now.

And the 2017 season takes it's 1st BIG HIT...

Mike Wright get ready

Kind of blew my thought that he would sign an extension just before pitching on OD.

[MDtransplant757]

First 4 series' are against Jays, Yankees, @Redsox, @Jays for 4 games. 

[TouchemAll]

No more worries about and extension for now.

If anything, his price will come down. Then again, if he's hurt and we extend him, we look like idiots.

Watch out the Orioles are always under estimating their injuries.

This is a contract year for Tillman. Rest/rehab is the logical choice. Surgery automatically kills his market value and renders him valueless to the O's for the year (and potentially ending his tenure as an O).

Article says he told Orioles about soreness in December and had the PRP injection then, before Duquette traded Gallardo away.    So, the team has known the situation, but it wasn't made public.     On reflection, if I were Duquette and were sniffing around for some pitching help, I wouldn't want other teams to know that my most reliable pitcher was having a shoulder issue.    So maybe that's why it was under wraps.   

Shows what they thought of Gallardo that they traded him away even knowing that there might be an issue with Tillman.

Optimistically, he'll be ready by mid-April.    But that assumes the PRP injection has done the trick.

Hopefully it will. A season without him....oh boy

The Carinals are not loosing their ACE they are losing a young pitcher but they have about 6 others.  He was only in competition for the 5th spot with Wacca and they have Weaver almost ready.

Martinez is their ace but I don't believe that Reyes was in a competition for the 5th spot.  He's a stud and probably their second best starter already.

Not sure if this has been answered... But WHO will start opening day now? I vote KG.
