Orioles win 6th straight with win over Cubs, but Cobb comes out of game early (sim)

[Tony-OH]

Game Report

Cobb will under go an MRI tomorrow to see that extend of the shoulder injury. The Orioles are hopeful it's just a strain.

Well drat. I don't see this pitching staff holding together well without Cobb. Plus this is going to make it harder to trade him

[tntoriole]

Knew we should have dealt him....lol.

No results have come back yet so we'll have to wait until at least tomorrow for the results.

Geez, you would figure the O's would pay for rush service.

Cobb had to fly to see Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion.

Does he even do shoulders?

Cobb got hurt in my sim, too.  After being absolutely terrible.  And I shopped him around.  No takers.  Like, no one wanted to trade for him.  

So then someone offered me a trade which I wasn't crazy about, I felt like I was giving up too much...but I tried to slip Cobb in there...like an overpaid, underperforming highly injury prone pitcher is someone you can slip in...and the other GM wrote back something like " I will NOT ACCEPT any overpriced veterans in any trade!!!"

So much for that.

This might be a little too realistic for my taste. At least you know how Mike Elias feels now.

Yeah, the trades have been fairly solid from a realistic perspective.

I didn't think Cobb would be as bad as he's been.  He's been absolutely terrible for me.  Means, too.
