May 13th vs. Baltimore (Mother's Day 6 Run 9th)

[Cocos Disciples]

Blister. Tito was telling the ump about it, and rubbed his hands.

[a700hitter]

He walked right by Mills into the runway, and Mills looked very surprised.

[jacksonianmarch]

Ripped blister. Read Francona's lips to the umpire. He said "he tore it right open, he's done".

Jackso signs on and he has a woody.

figured youd show up right about now

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Its one of those days.....clearly this team wasn't ready to play today

[riverside sluggers]

Game has gone from a sure thing to "living on a prayer"

 

EDIT: Its irritation to the middle finger

just got home, turned on NESN and good things happen!!

[Cocos Disciples]

Hrm. This isn't going too well. Snyder quickly allows a double, throws away a pickoff. Payton at 3rd, 0 out.

[jacksonianmarch]

"Irritation to the right middle finger".

[Cocos Disciples]

"Irritation in his right middle finger."-per NESN.

good to know injuries bring you joy

[a700hitter]

I guess the finger problems are not cured after all.

[jacksonianmarch]

doesnt sound like anything too serious and it is about time you guys got snakebit a little. If he blew out his arm or tore something, I wouldnt be happy. Kinda like how you guys were watching our guys go down with hammies. Nothing serious.

[BoSox21]

apparently its not a blister. its an evulsion, whatever the f*** that is

[riverside sluggers]

An evulsion? (spelling)

 

Not a blister but tearing away at the skin, Jacko would like to be on a fly on the wall to see that

[mar_022]

that sucks. He was really feeling the curve this year...that middle finger is key to his curveball grip. Hopefully he doesnt go to the DL, and hopefully it doesnt throw him off too much next time out

[a700hitter]

After facing Beckett, Snyder must look like he is lobbing the ball under hand.

[jacksonianmarch]

I guess the finger problems are not cured after all.

 

an avulsion of the skin. I have never heard that used on skin before, mostly for certain kinds of fractures. It is when there is pulling away from the normal attachment. So it sounds like he has developed a blister but hasnt ripped it? We'll see.

[a700hitter]

What's an evulsion, Dr. jackson?

i think its the opposite...according to remy he pulled the skin away, not necessarily the blister

[riverside sluggers]

Snyder pitching the way the Sox have been on offense, lackadaisical

 

Worst case scenario: Beckett goes to the DL. Hansack would be called up to take his place since Lester is still throwing bullpen sessions

[Rdsxmbnt]

from the Globe:

 

According to Merriam-Webster online, avulsion is "a forcible separation or detachment as a tearing away of a body part accidentally or surgically."

 

They've also classified it as a skin irritation

[jacksonianmarch]

see my post above.

 

When you are talking about an avulsion fracture, you are talking about when there is undo stress pulling a tendon which causes the bone it is attached to to pull away and fracture. When talking about the skin, you would say that it is when there is undo stress on the skin pulling it away from its normal attachment. It sounds like the same mechanism that you create a blister. But that is typically when you separate the layers of skin. If he had a true avulsion, he may have pulled the entire layer of skin away from the underlying connective tissue and that would be akin to a large blood blister.

[jacksonianmarch]

from the Globe:

 

same thing as what I said, just more succinct.

[Rdsxmbnt]

wasted double

[Taliesin]

an avulsion of the skin. I have never heard that used on skin before

 

Time to renew your subscription to JEMS MJ. This is beyond basic soft-tissue injury terminology.

 

It's taught in EMT class for lord's sake.

[Cocos Disciples]

That was a bad inning. Can't ground to the left side twice in a row with a man on 2nd.

Ah, different terminology. I was taught it to be a full thickness skin flap. here ya go.

 

A "full thickness" flap or avulsion is complete loss of all layer of the skin
