Theriot out again?

[dweenmachine]

Is he out again for today's (4/22) game too? He had a sore back or something and was scratched from yesterday's game, and has a big "x" next to his name in Yahoo...
Anyone have any info?

Yahoo said he wouldn't miss anymore time, so of course he is still out.


"Apr 22 Theriot, who missed Monday's game due to back spasms, appears to be fine, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. "He's fine," manager Lou Piniella said. "His back locked up on him a little bit. He was available if we needed him, but that was it."

Recommendation: It's hard to know whether the spasms will recur, but at this point, it doesn't look like Theriot will miss any more time. "

Yeah, I saw that on Yahoo too - figures...

Get well soon Jimmy Rollins

after missing a ton of games @ SS w/Rollins, I've now taken 2 more doughnuts thanks to this mysterious injury. I just dropped Theriot for Aybar so I hope Aybar's health insurance is up to date....

With all due respect dude, it's not a mysterious injury... it's back spasms. I've had 'em before. A lot of people get 'em where the spasms flare up and then a couple of days later they're fine. I bet Theriot will be back in there tomorrow or the next game...

i dropped him for kaz matsui. between the wrist problem and the back, he was sitting too many games for my taste.

[BillyHallDisciple]

I honestly don't get what you guys are talking about, he's hardly even sat out any games up until the back spasms...

[BillyHallDisciple]

Dude is like 11 for his last 23 at-bats... what, do you guys not like production or something?

Most of us complainers just grabbed him off the FA/WW because of Jimmy Rollins' DL soap opera. Most of us complainers(especially in weekly leagues) have now had a GIANT hole at SS for a LONG time(4 AB's in 2.5 weeks for me). Here's hoping this curse lifts soon.

Yeah, I've had Theriot and Kaz filling in for Kendrick and Rollins for the last few days, but I'm way behind the 8 ball on games played at 2B and SS. I can't afford Theriot sitting out for multiple days, but I'll give him one more shot since I haven't cut him yet.
