You sure he hurt himself just 2 weeks ago? For Swarzak, a "non-baseball-related" activity means he could've been injured any time during the 2012 season.

Get well soon Swarzak. Hope there are no setbacks in your recovery.

This team looks, performs and now even acts like a AAA club.

It could've been worse, he could've slipped and ruptured his spleen while shoveling his driveway.

It could've been worse...One of the players might have been hurt.

You have got to be kidding!!! I didn't know the pitching staff was so deep that the pitchers are wrestling to see who doesn't need practice. Management needs to take control of the team and start to issue HEFTY fines for player's conduct or should I say "horse play?"

Thank god this didnt effect a actual playerwe counted on......hilarious.....we uck so bad that even Anthony wont be a setback.
