Health: The List of Injuries

by Matthew Cerrone on March 5th, 2008 at 9:23 pm

…ok, let’s try and go over this one more time…

Duaner Sanchez is temporarily sidelined due to soreness in his surgically-repaired right shoulder.

Ryan Church had tried to work out today, but felt dizzy and so he will remain sidelined until he is back on his feet after having suffered a concussion in a collision with Marlon Anderson, who bruised his chest.

Moises Alou will likely miss 4-6 weeks due to hernia surgery.

Carlos Delgado took ground balls and hit off a tee on Wednesday, and did not feel pain in his hip.  He will try to take batting practice tomorrow.

Carlos Beltran has yet to play in a spring training game, as he continues to recover from off-season surgery.  He says he will be ready for opening day.

Orlando Hernandez threw his first complete bullpen session and did not complain of any pain after it was done.

Endy Chavez and Jose Valentin took batting practice and ran the bases on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Both expect to play in a game this weekend.

Ruben Gotay has a sprained ankle.

Michel Abreu has been sidelined with a strained right hip flexor.

Brian Schneider has missed the last few games with a strained hamstring.  However, he has been taking batting practice and catching back at camp.

Also, my back hurts and I may be getting a sinus infection.
