Mark Teixeira Will Miss 8-10 Weeks With a Strained Wrist, Joins Rest of Yankees Roster at Doctor’s Office
Teixeira has strained right wrist and will miss 8 to 10 weeks.
— Jack Curry (@JackCurryYES) March 6, 2013
Mark Teixeira will miss the next 8-10 weeks with a strained wrist according to YES’s Jack Curry. Teixeira is the latest Yankee to suffer an injury that will keep him out for the early portion of the season. Curtis Granderson fractured his forearm in February and was expected to miss 10 weeks. Alex Rodriguez had hip surgery and no one knows if he will even play this season. In addition to those injuries, The Journal News notes a few others:
Starting pitcher Phil Hughes has been shut down with a bulging disc in his upper back, top left-handed reliever Boone Logan has dealt with inflammation in his elbow, and prospects Slade Heathcott, Adonis Garcia and David Adams have dealt with thumb, wrist and back injuries. Even Cashman is facing a lengthy rehab after breaking his right fibula and dislocating his right ankle while skydiving on Monday.
The season begins on April 1st. The Yankees hope to field an entire team by then.

Slade Heathcott, Adonis Garcia and David Adams
David Adams is sad that his name does not readily lend itself to easy small talk.

Hideki Matsui must have wrists of adamantium.

I know he’s not on the team anymore but I really hope Mike Mussina gets injured, too.

I know he’s not on the team anymore but I really hope Kevin Brown gets injured, too.
Because fuck him that’s why.

What’s the MLB policy on drug testing while on IR? Do they not get tested? Is this all about “Yankee Detox Time”?
March 6th, 2013 at 5:26 PM
Getting old sucks. Somebody get Jorge Posada on the line, ASAP.
March 6th, 2013 at 5:27 PM
There’s always room in my heart for a Kevin Brown injury. Good call

I was a little more optimistic than most about the Yankees this year because of their pitching (which was as good in the playoffs last year as their hitting was bad), but in that division they’re now done for.
