There are some injuries that shouldn't be reported

From the Detroit Free Press:

I guess Tigers fans want to know everything about their guys but "ouch!" I almost feel Leyland told this to the press to call out his guy. Light a fire under him, if you will...

It's amazing to think that not so long ago, I was starved for information about the Twins b/c I lived in California. Now I get to read have access to more information than I could possibly want thanks to the internet.

The new roid rage

No wonder he’s so crabby all the time. Still, those have to be some big roids to interfere with his game.

Hahaha..."light a fire under him..."

to burn off the piles? It’d be tough to play with them there hem-roids. He needs to get those fixed.

So many jokes, so little time
  1. “He knocked that ball down with his, um…what is that bulge in the back of his uniform?”
  1. “Guillen dives back into first on a pick-off play. The tag got him on the, ...what the? He appears to have a load in his pants”
  1. “He’s taking this pinch between the cheek and gum thing a little too far.”

And of course, no roid list is complete without the classic:

  1. “Rectum, darn near killed ‘em.”

Call me crazy...

but that is information I don’t need. And don’t any of you decide to create a stat out of this information.

Hits w/ and w/out Roid treatment or something like, really not needed; thanks anyway.

...

So he’s on the juice.

You gotta wonder what the locker room atmosphere is like now…It’d be pretty cool to be in the majors, but things like this and Silva having a case of the green-apple splatters on the mound last year that makes me wonder if I would really be OK with people knowing about ALL of my bodily functions.

George Brett

1980. A Hall of Fame case of hemorrhoids that eventually required surgery.

Brett maintained the pine tar incident finally helped put the notoriety of the problem behind him.

As I was saying...

When I saw why he was injured, I said “That’s why my lineup’s been such a pain in the ass.”

Rimshot.
