Second concussion already in this young season.



And, no, thank you, Deadspin. I'm not comforted by Jeter getting hurt in the Yankee game and their struggles over there. I want to know: who is going to pick Churchie up?

I dunno whether anyone else noticed but looked like Church took a shot to the noggin in the 1st inning too when catching that faul ball. He was in outer space monetarily while Escobar tagged and went to 2nd.

I'm no brain injury expert but 14 days on the DL seems prudent.

As for replacements, we haven't got any. I wanted to start a thread about how much Easley and Anderson have sucked this year but I don;t have the courage to face up to it.

Felt an eerie flashback to August 30, 2003 when young Jose lay on the ground at second to end the game. Different injury, different expectations, different time...but still. Not pretty.

Be careful with Churchie. As with Jose five years ago, he's a big chunk of what we have to look forward to.

Don't forget Chavez sucking too.

Started a "Bench Woes" thread just for you.

I was at that 2003 game. I bet he'd still turn out to be a great player. My dad thought he'd be robbed of his speed. Luckily, I won that bet.

Evidently, he's OK.

]Church added that he was still spitting out small rocks late into the night.


Weird. But not as weird as blue arms.

Church does get the night off, however. Endy in right.
