My gf </fealz> is a surgical tech and she says that Dunn's probably was done laparoscopically, which is like a 1" incision. My guess is Holliday had to be opened up.

That stinks.

Out for 5 days? I wonder what the difference is with what happened to him and Matt Holliday? They said Holliday could be out for 2-6 weeks.

Didn't Holliday tell STL not to put him on the DL because he feels he can come back much sooner?

Baseball should probably have like an 8 day DL. 1 guy max on it at a time.

I'll give you one 8 day DL if you can that ridiculous DH.

No one wants to watch pitchers hit...it's the natural evolution of the game. Plus it's been around for 40 ish years...deal with it.

The DH will never go away because its kept guys like Frank Thomas, Jim Thome, David Ortiz, etc around for a lot longer than they would have been otherwise. Those guys are money makers and fan favorites.

Jim Thome and his probably 300+ HRs as a DH would disagree with you wholeheartedly.

if it were my decision i would abolish the dh..teams will put up with a shitty first baseman if he can produce. i just hate having one league with different rules..either the nl needs to add dh or the al remove them , both leagues need to be on same page typical selig to sit on his hands and do nothing.

ehh the all star thing was just retarded..selig is an awful commish, not a smart man.. he did nothing for over a decade to address the peds and the record books meaning little anymore..and the nfl added the wildcard first i believe selig only copied it..what do you like about the man? what has he done for the game? in a positive light

i agree..and it prevents pitchers throwing at guys if they have to dig in at the plate...selig moved the brewers to nl central to increase the chance at a world series it was a selfish and greedy move..he addressed peds like ronald regan addressed crack cocaine and aids. what did selig do when an umpire cost a kid a perfect game last year(the last play of the game) nothing ..he is good at doing nothing it has come with practice

What's wrong with specialization of talents in sports? In general, it makes things better and not worse. It's not like anyone cares that catchers never play in the field or that position players don't pitch. We might as well just let all the players play every position like it was 100 years ago.

No thanks. Give me a great matchup between a great hitter who can't play the field well vs. a pitcher who can't hit rather than watching an inept pitcher pray that he makes contact to advance a runner.
