Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
http://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseb...9bb30f31a.html
Huge loss for the Cardinals. He'll likely be out for 4-6 weeks. Last edited by knoonan991; 04-01-2011 at 02:23 PM. |

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
What an awful day for this to happen Cardinal fans are going to think its a mean joke at first. What a punch in the gut for them.
Also hope the surgery goes well. Best wishes to Holliday. |

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
I'm no doctor, but a 4-6 week recovery from an appendectomy seems extremely conservative. I would think he would be back in about 2 weeks or even less.

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
I was going to post this when I heard it on ESPN and figured everyone would think it was an april fools joke as well, haha. St. Louis is having some of the worst luck i've ever seen this year. Hope it continues.

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
Not emergent or ruptured. Laproscopic surgery. Much easier than gallbladder. 2 weeks is very doable. He is an athlete, no incision, already rehabbing.

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
When I had mine I felt fine within a week but the doc would not release me for 3.I know its weird but even though I didn't have any pain I lost some stamina for a good 6 months.

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
I will go on record saying I thought it was an April Fools Day joke for about 30 seconds until I started getting several texts and reading news online that it wasn't.

Re: Matt Holliday to Undergo Appendectomy
Kid on my little league team had it happen right before the season started. He wasn't released to play that year (8 week season). His actually burst though.
