    Just sickening...early word is Freeman will miss "significant" time of the season and the Braves are already looking for outside help at 1B (James Loney/Ryan Howard are the two being mentioned). I don't know if I've ever been so disappointed with a baseball injury...

            ...and it's confirmed. Freddie has a fractured wrist and will miss at least 8 weeks.

              Interesting to see where the Braves go from here.
              I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                Getting really sick of sports injuries.

                Edit: And it really sucks this happens just as he was starting to get some notice as one of the best hitters in the game.

                  I see the Braves are saying 10 weeks, not 8. Oh well...they've called up Rio Ruiz and I'd rather they see if he can play before signing someone like Loney/Howard. Just so disappointing...

                    I'm really worried whether that will affect his swing going forward.

                    It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                      Sucks for Freeman and I am still amazed that Rizzo wasn't seriously hurt when he got dinged by Chapman 2 weeks ago. An 1/8th of an inch higher and I am sure Rizzo would have suffered a fractured wrist as well.

                        Terrible night overall last night what with Freeman's injury AND Kevin Pillar absolutely losing his cool. I lost a little respect for Pillar there but at the very least he was very quick to apologize for what he said. (he made an apology immediately after the game during the media scrum and earlier today on social media) The sad part of it all, is that it occurred on the Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. I have no doubt Pillar will be suspended and docked some pay for this.

                          Orioles deciding to bow out of the playoff race in mid-May...thanks for getting my hopes up again!

                            I agree with your thoughts. I'd rather see what Ruiz can do, or someone within the organization before signing or worse yet, trading for someone.

                            No offense to the Braves or their fans, but they weren't going to win a pennant this year, so why not see what players can do within your organization before signing/trading for an outside source.

                              Couldn't care less about what Pillar said or what Bautista did.

                              I'm way more offended at supposed professional pitchers hitting 7 batters in 3 games.

                                Phillies appear to want that #1 draft pick again.
