Tough injury for anyone to recover from but especially tough for a non athlete. This really does suck. |

Well the Adolfo injury seems extremely minor compared to what was initially reported, but Burger is probably in the same bin as Rodon. You can hope all you want but I would not count on him ever playing a big league inning until he's demonstrated he can. |

I was told these injuries don't matter to hitters. No loss of power. |

How does a 22 year old tear an AT? A 47 year old I could see... |

Howard also tore his at the end of the 2011 season when he was 31 years old, and he already had close to 300 big league homers to his name. Little bit of a different scenario here. |
