Shaun Marcum placed on the DL

[jdsun1]

Not that serious but extra precaution to be taken. Fantasy owners can now breathe a sigh of relief temporaryily...

Andrews confirmed what Toronto had already determined, that Marcum was suffering from strained ligaments around the elbow and forearm. The injury wasn't deemed to be of extreme concern, considering Andrews gave Marcum the go-ahead to begin a throwing program as soon as Saturday.

There's still no established timetable for Marcum's return, though he's eligible to be activated from the 15-day disabled list in time for Toronto's July 4-6 road series against the Angels. It's more likely that the Blue Jays will take extra precaution with Marcum's comeback, meaning he could be sidelined until around the All-Star break.

New England patriots? Name one example other than the BJ Ryan situation last year where this is true?

Is the BJ Ryan debacle not enough?? Maybe I should have said they're becoming instead of become.






Anyways, it sounds as if he's gonna be ok sooner rather than later.
