The Arm really is a great read.  Well I think so, still working my way through the last quarter of the book.  Give your self some time. 

I finished it a couple days after it came out.

And I agree, it's a great read.

Riley Pint is doing pretty well.

Need to see how Swanson turns out.  He is beyond struggling right now.

Inciarte was in that too, right?   Or did he go over in another deal?

He did.  We knew at the time it was a very bad trade.  We won't know if it was historically bad for a few years.

And Danny Hudson finally got paid, but he is struggling so far in Pittsburgh.  And it was interesting to read the O's watched a Todd Coffey showcase, would have been fun to watch him run out of the bullpen in Baltimore.

What a shame. He and Bryan Mitchell are pretty much the only two pitchers we can hit.

Ouch.  Not even his arm.

Despite pitching horribly to start the season, it still hurts the Red Sox who are already down David Price.  Kind of like if we lost Kevin Gausman.

Chapman. Rotator cuff. That's not great for a pitcher.

Duffy. 

Oblique.

Six-eight weeks.

Well, that's the end of the statistical Bundy comp I made last week (I hope).

This isn't a pitcher's arm but it's too significant to ignore:

Mike Trout Tears Ligament

Quote

The Angels have suffered an injury that is probably a season-crushing blow. Two-time AL MVP Mike Trout has been placed on the disabled list after an MRI revealed a torn ligament in his left thumb. Surgery is an option and the Angels say (via Mike DiGiovanna) that if that happens, Trout would miss five-to-eight weeks.

He better have the surgery. This is no Joey Rickard.

Considering the headline, 5-8 weeks isn't so bad.    I hope he makes a full recovery and returns as the same awesome player he's been to this point in his career.  

For the record, he's been worth 3.5 rWAR in less than 1/3 of a season.   What an amazing player.
