Belt broke his wrist

... And is headed to the DL.


OMFG

Are we paying the karma mortgage this year, or what? Was Bochy taking a long drive out in the country and pick up the fiddle or something? This is getting ridiculous.

Conner was called up to replace him.

So much for wondering how to get him ABs

We sure are snakebit injury-wise so far. If we miss the playoffs that's the only reason why. As it is for all the good teams that don't make it, usually.

Looks like Bochy's fiddle playing is NOT "the best there's ever been."

Some sort of injury karma. As long as we get some of these guys back healthy, and stay in contention, I am not too upset. Gives teh kids like Burriss and Crawford a chance to play.

Wrist injuries scare me. Lets hope he makes a full recovery and doesn't try to rush back.

Heard :panda: has a sore forearm which may delay him a day or two

minor setback.

the REAL story is that this proves that this is a nagging injury that will hamper him probably for the rest of the season. It should be a complete non-factor, though, come 2012.

Hope not. I think I asked the board how they expected his injury to affect him when back, I heard that it shouldn't affect his performance but it would be sore all year. Who the heck knows?

Thats kinda how I mean it.

It will HURT, but it will not get worse. Something is a constant hurt is bound to affect his swing.

AND...

He was hitting at an elite level when he got hurt. Hard to imaging that to continue when it hurts every time he swings the bat.

Sounds like Belt's injury is relatively minor. Hopefully it heals well; wrists always scare me.

Grant from MCC summed it up best when this first happened: "At the beginning of the season there were three hitters on this Giants team that I looked forward to watching their every at-bat. They have since been replaced by Eli Whiteside, Miguel Tejada, and the 2009 version of Aubrey Huff."
