Injury plagued

[PresHabib]

Can we dub this the year of the injured star yet? There have been lots of stars goin down.

My team in particular is being victimized by this. My DL stint includes or has included at times this season:

Nomar Garciaparra
Kerry Wood
Garrt Anderson
Vernon Wells
Kevin Brown
and an honorable mention to Curt Schilling who may find himself on the DL sooner than later.

Thats my 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 9th picks (nomar, wood, anderson, brown), the guy I traded my 7th and 15th picks for (Oswalt/K. Matsui for Vernon Wells), and my first pick (Schilling) all hurt and have missed or are likely to miss significant time.

Is anybody getting hurt more than me?

Consider this an open invitation to Sexson owners.

Miraculously, i have kept myself in first place, but the ball is gonna drop soon and so too will my position in the standings...

So I'm starting this "bitch about injuries thread".

Worse off than me? Give us your two cents!

This goes in the venting forum. I think everyone is injured a lot. Lot of annoying posts about it.

[PresHabib]

Oh, I didn't know there was a specific forum for venting.

Didn't mean to drop annoyance bombs.

That's why you don't take pitchers early in the draft...too many unknowns.

This has been done before, but I'll add to your list

I've had these guys injured on my team at one point or another

Nomar- traded away
Garrett- traded away
Halladay
Brown
Wagner
Giambi
D. Young- dropped
Reyes- dropped

I have read all the whining posts about injuries since season started and held my tongue-- see if you can top this list of drafted players on my team who have been injured.

Garrett Anderson
Kerry Wood
Billy Wagner
Lary Walker
Josh Beckett
Vincente Padilla
Placido Polanco
Dimitri Young
Carl Everett

Not to mention minor injuries to Pujols and V. Martinez (not drafted)
I dropped out of first this week been going between third and first all year. Figure last half of year has got to be better.

my DL team:

p. wilson
giles
chavez
sosa
wells
halladay
beckett
peavy
pujols (sort of)
thome (sort of)

7 team league so all 7 teams are sort of stacked, but none banged up like mine.

[LBJackal]

Not my team, but DK's team, which is keeping me out of last place:

Prior
Sexson
Wagner
Wood
Reyes
Juan Gon
Torii Hunter
Ibanez
Trot Nixon
Rafael Soriano
Cliff Floyd
Kenny Lofton

Yikes! Thank God for thsoe injuries, or I'd probably be in last
