Pedroia to the 15 day DL

[RedSoxNC84]

After last nights game we knew he was hurting, I was hoping it woudn't be a DL stint but that has since been confirmed. The offense is just not going to be the same without him.

 

In other news, Joe Kelly FINALLY got optioned to AAA so we won't have to deal with that for a little while. Not sure who will be taking his spot in the mean time though.. Masterson maybe?

Woot! (Joe Kelly)

WEEI says Masterson will take his spot on Sunday.

 

That sucks about Pedroia. Just when the offense was starting to come around, one of the steadiest vets goes down.

Yeah, that really stinks. Hopefully, it won't be a prolonged DL stint, and he'll be able to come back after the 15 days. Hamstrings can be tricky things.

 

He is one of the few vets who isn't a bum! LOL

[Behindenemylines]

Pedey was having a good season. I hope this isn't something he has a problem with the rest of the season.

Pedroia back to the 15 day DL

What a surprise!

Pedroia back to the 15 day DL

 

No s***!! That's the thread title. Troll.

[Spudboy]

The thread refers to his original stint on the DL I think.

 

In any case Pedroia is most likely done for the year at least as far as being productive. Hammys are a giant bitch. I can't see his calming down anytime soon. If he does come back it will likely be more of the same limited action with him hobbling around.

 

This really sucks because he was having a resurgent season.

 

Sox are going nowhere so this does not really hurt. But it sure would be nice to see him play and be effective.

Wow, take a look at the OP date and chill.

Yes the thread was made for his first DL stint, but it still applies. It kind of rubs me off the wrong way too. I know he's a doctor, but he's so quick to point out when a player gets hurt on our team. Almost like he wants to rub it in our face, then tell us how f***ed we are. It's annoying. Check out half the threads he makes, they're about our players injuries. Some people don't mind, but I could see VA point as well. Wish he would just stfu, but I've been hoping he'd do that since the day I joined the site.

I'm not defending Jacko. I can certainly understand the annoyance that both you and VA feel.

 

It would be helpful for Jacko to explain how hammy injuries work and what the likely prognoses are.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

.....or he could just stop trying to put salt in the wound and try to get the sky is falling reactions out of us. I would call him out on it all the time. I stopped because Yeszir would always be on my ass about it and feared eventually he'd banned me. I only brought it up again to defend VA, but Jacko is going to keep doing his thing and there's nothing we can do about it but accept it. He thinks he is slick, but I caught on to it very quickly.

[a700hitter]

He is on the DL. Of course Jacko will enjoy that. And if you let him know that his post got to you, he has even more fun. You have yourselves to thank for that.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

So basically you're saying he's a troll? Thanks, but I already knew that. We're not to blame here.

You have the power to make him a successful Troll.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

It's a shame I don't have the power to put him in timeout LOL.

[VA Sox Fan]

My bad. But he's still a troll.

One of the rare times I agree with a700, meaning he's absolutely, 100% right.

Thanks dad.

Yes and I thanked him for his fatherly advice.

[User Name]

"Fatherly" is certainly a gracious and kind way of putting it.

Yup, he is. Like I said, we just have to accept it and let it be.

[a700hitter]

Thanks dad.

Beats being called gramps. I havent gotten there yet.

[waltr]

Hamels has no no in 9th

[Spudboy]

Just heard Pedroia say that he will be having a PRP injection Monday.

 

I don't know if this is a proven technique or not. But as long as I don't have to pay for it I don't mind!

[Douglas616]

Saw it coming from a mile away. He should just rest and saddle up for next year at this point.

I agree. I know he's a fighter and a gamer, but there's nothing to play for anymore. Besides, I'm still terrified of the long term ramifications of his body type, play style, and that contract and what the three combined can mean for us.

 

Fully aware that this is not going to be the popular opinion by any means, if a team wanted Pedroia in trade I'd move him 15 times out of 10 right now. I don't see us as contenders in the immdediate future and we have a top of the line caliber replacement on staff right now (Brock Holt would be at least 24 teams' starting 2B right now) who's far more likely to be in his prime when the team makes it back to relevance, which I estimate to take about 2-3 years.
