I'll sign up for 3-4 weeks right now. Please.

the rotoworld blurb made it sound bad

on replay it didn't look like much at all...but who knows

Hells Satans · Post by **Hells Satans** » Tue May 01, 2012 7:36 am

Looking at the replay, I think it may be his hamstring.

I'm pretty sure this is bad.

all the reports so far say its his knee. Good luck to us all getting a straight answer from anyone over the next week. Vmart took about a week b4 anyone knew.

MRI for Evan Longoria this morning. Worry is torn meniscus. Prognosis dependent on whether surgical or not.

Hearing #Rays Longoria has a hamstring issue, guesstimate is he'll be out 6-8 weeks. Could have been worse.

What's worse-

A player of Longoria's abilty being out till a possible August 1 (I don't know, I'm just using this date), almost forcing his owner to keep him on the roster hopeful that he comes back earlier, while at the mercy of setbacks...
or
A season ending prognosis in which you've lost your best hitter, but gained a roster spot to replace him...

At least this should open up some free time in my schedule.

OUCH......and worse it is at a position which SUCKS for depth.

At least the Ellsbury owners got to pick from an OK player pool.....finding another 3B is gonna be a bitch!

As one of the guys who lost Ellsbury in a league I have a decent team in, I agree. OF replacements are 100x easier than the Hot Corner to replace. Good luck.

It still maybe better than the Pujols owners.....have to keep playing him every day!

(I'm sure he turns it around soon)

If it does end up being two months, and assuming (I dislike that word as much as Doughboys mislikes "projections") he comes back fully, you are looking at replacing over the next eight weeks about 10-15 HR, 32 RBI and Runs, about 3 or 4 SB, and about 200 AB with a 0.290 or so BA.

Nothing to it.

There's always jack hannahan... Oh wait, he's likely gone in most leagues too. Yep, going to suck finding a 3b. Good news is a recent update on espn says injury may not be as severe as first expected. (according to a tweet from the Rays GM?)

Hells Satans · Post by **Hells Satans** » Tue May 01, 2012 3:23 pm

Confirmed. Torn hamstring. 4-8 weeks.

During the draft at #14, I went back and forth in my head between selecting Evan Longoria or Justin Upton. I went with Upton and watched Longoria compile nice stats while Upton got off to a slow start.

Hopefully, Longoria will be back around Memorial Day rather than July 4th.

Paul, how'd you get video of me after I read the news?
In all seriousness, this sucks.

Baseball Furies · Post by **Baseball Furies** » Tue May 01, 2012 11:06 pm

Nobody f@#%ed more than me on this one! Drafting on the turn or towards the end of the draft in most of mine this season including my two Main Events, Longo was the perfect pick there given the third base scarcity and his sure bet to finally return first round value this season...NOT!

I swear, who the f@#% is worse, Hamilton or Longoria these days? Now where that pic Jupinka posted of the stick figure bashing his head against the wall when you need it?
