I mention the guy on my blog, a politics blog, and he is instantly injured. Jim Baumbach of Newsday writes at his On the Yankees Beat blog:
Bobby Abreu strained an oblique muscle in batting practice today and is expected to be shut down from all baseball related activities for a few weeks. If you ask me, Opening Day is in question. The Yankees sent him for more tests.
He asked Joe if this meant that Bernie could sneak in, and Torre said: “No.” (Torre should be replaced, though not for a bland remark.) If Bobby’s out for opening day, call Melky.
And if whats-his-name stays hurt, as he probably will, Brian can snag Chacon back from the Pirates or put Gator back out there. I’m almost serious. Sure, he’s probably lost a few hours off his fastball, but he can still no doubt throw faster than, say, Wakefield.
No, this is not a Yankees blog. It’s not a sports blog. If you want politics, I posted this one at RedState this morning: Despite LAT protest to the contrary, Schwarzenegger backs Bush on Iraq
