Chris Snyder busts a nut

This sounds a little painful!

Diamondbacks placed catcher Chris Snyder on the disabled list with a left testicular fracture.

That's gotta be even worse than Kaz Matsui's anal fissures. Snyder was injured when he was hit by a foul tip last night. Miguel Montero will start and be backed up by Robby Hammock while Snyder is out. He's worth adding in NL-only leagues

Mental note to self: Next year draft as many tough players as possible, and leave the injury prone guys to someone else. If Chris Snyder gets back in two weeks from this one, give me 10 more guys just like him!! Most players would be done for the year, and who would blame them. Gotta love Snyder being a gamer!

Manager Bob Melvin said Wednesday that Chris Snyder will not require surgery to repair his fractured left testicle.

Some guys have all the luck. "That's good news," Melvin said. "The timetable will still be the same; it will still be a two-week period. He'll be back at the end of the All-Star break."
