Rangers Mitch Moreland will have surgery tomorrow.

Not surprised. Mitch has surgery every year.

Crap, crap. Romeo ... how long do you figure?

SOB one of the few above the Mendoza line

4-6 weeks you think?

What exactly is he having done?

 

[Bmurph]

What exactly is he having done?

Last I heard he was just having some bone spurs or something cleaned out

 

[Windingmywatch]

What exactly is he having done?

believe floating bone chip removed from his elbow

 

[romeo212000]

Optimisticly im thinking closer to four weeks.

Last week when they mentioned the possibility of him having surgery I believe they said he would only have to miss about 15 days.

I was thinking this was a possibility, but I didn't want to be too optimistic.

He'll fit right in.

So eventually we are getting back an MVP, another guy who was our best hitter in the 2010 WS, the pitcher who threw the best game in our postseason history, a young pitcher who was on pace to go to an All Star Game last year, and possibly even a recent 18 game winner. Not to mention possibly our greatest minor league home run hitter of all time. Then next year we get back a perennial Cy Young candidate and the former #1 prospect in all of baseball.

All of that sounds good except for " the former #1 prospect in all of baseball". Remains to be seen if we get him back and if we do, how will he perform? I'm hoping for the best, but definitely not expecting it.

Well, I just thought this would be a good idea and t guess they are going to do it:

@Evan_P_Grant: Kyle Blanks will be added to Rangers roster on Wednesday. 40-man move needed

That part doesn't sound good? Are you fucking retarded?

Good call

Did you read the second part of my statement? I was referring to him missing 2 years in a row for basically the same injury.

What wouldn't be good about him returning? The point of his statement is that they were all promising hypothetical returns coming soon (except Darvish)

The "second part" of your statement could apply to ALL of those guys
