Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
I guess I'm mildly concerned.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
RT @jtrentman on 700 wlw jocketty just told Seg it was a minor spasm and hope he can be back in a couple days//Not what trainer, Dusty said.

He would be if they need to use Leake this series.

Unless they lose today and need Leake tomorrow.
Here's the "best case scenario" right now. Win tonight, end the series. Cueto comes back in time for the World Series.
Set the NLCS rotation like this:
Latos
Arroyo
(off day)
Bailey
Leake
Latos (normal rest)
(off day)
Arroyo (5 days rest)
Bailey (normal rest)
Leake only pitches one game if all goes to plan. Now obviously losing tonight or Cueto not being back for the World Series changes that.

I heard the interview. Jocketty said the injury was nothing like what Cozart had and that he'd be available as early as tomorrow.

Interesting for sure. I didnt head it - just copying from Fay's twitter.

It was very short. Walt really made it sound as if there's nothing to worry about and then bailed out quickly as if he had a playoff game to watch.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
Wait so Cueto might be back for the NLCS???

According to Walt he might be available tomorrow, if needed.
It's anyone's guess right now.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
Glad they're all on the same page lol.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
@MoEgger1530: Walt still saying spasm. Dusty/trainer saying oblique strain. Feels like 2011.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
I'm going to assume Walt didn't get word from the trainer until after that interview.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
If the interview was live, I have a hard time believing Walt hasn't already spoken with the trainer. If the interview was taped, it would sure be nice for Seg or WLW to clarify that.
Re: Cueto Diagnosed w/ "Mild Oblique Strain"
I think Cozart's injury was worse because of how he follows through after a swing. Much more violent than Cueto's motion which I can imagine is intense motion but far less damaging to the oblique.
Im not a doctor (or a GM apparently) though.
