Lorenzo Cain has a groin strain...
...who will roll the dice on Jarrod Dyson?

Answering the second question first...naaah!

Answering the first question second...yes...yes I will. Speed. Looking for speed only guys in the FA pool leaves me feeling as guilty as getting caught (I imagine!) looking at lingerie in a JC Penny...cheap and unworthy.

Lorenzo Cain OF KC - Cain has been transferred to the 60 day DL today for a grade 1 groin strain that he's having difficulty with. Normally, this is a short-term injury; but he needs more time for the most simple of injuries.

Our take: Was anyone shocked by this recent development? He does, after all, get hurt every single year and miss significant time. Those in deep leagues might want to take a look at Jarrod Dyson.

I don't know where this came from but it is obviously wrong - he wasn't on the DL so couldn't be transferred - AND I can find anything that suggests that Cain is headed for the 15 day DL

on the latter point...

Lorenzo Cain left Wednesday night's game against the Astros with a Grade 1 groin strain.
That's the least severe type of strain, but Cain could still be looking at an extended absence. The 28-year-old outfielder was off to a decent start this season, boasting a .333 batting average and two steals in 12 games. Jarrod Dyson figures to get a boost in playing time and may be worth an add in fantasy leagues for his speed.

Update: Cain suffered a Grade 1 groin strain Wednesday night, and is considered "day-to-day," Andy McCullough of the Kansas City Star reports. (Apr 16)

A lousy source apparently.

[DOUGHBOYS]

Then there is the case of Casey Janssen. His owners hold onto him awaiting Saves.
Then, he gets hurt while being hurt. A triple hurt if including the folks who own him.

Rotoworld now reporting that Cain will go on the DL. If true, it probably makes sense in that two weeks off for Cain is equivalent to day-to-day for most players.

[GetALife]

down goes Cuddyer.

this is certainly out of control now.
wonder if i'll even have enough guys to field next week errrrr this weekend. white flag already.

[TOXIC ASSETS]

Dave (Smoke) Stewart -- broken finger not healed up from 1990. Stay away!

[Outlaw]

Brandon Phillips- Back/hip possibly - removed 2nd inning today..

[Deadheadz]

John Gibbons just confirmed Adam Lind to the DL and Toronto calling up Juan Francisco

[Atlas]

Adam Eaton--hamstring?

[Deadheadz]

Bryce Harper - "lack of hustle" shouldn't require a DL stint but he's out of the starting lineup regardless.

Desmond Jennings - groin discomfort, wait and see

Ivan Nova - pulled after discomfort in elbow

Adam Eaton - played today but left early with a strained hamstring.

[Yah Mule]

Nova gave up two home runs to Ryan Hanigan. If he's not injured, he's got some explaining to do.

I believe Nova was pulled for hurt feelings.

[Deadheadz]

Nova gave up two home runs to Ryan Hanigan. If he's not injured, he's got some explaining to do.

There's a couple of reports of Nova with a partially torn UCL. One report says to expect Tommy John surgery announcement soon. MLB.com saying Nova to the DL for sure.

Yankees are promoting Bryan Mitchell from Double-A Trenton.

[Outlaw]

Nova partially torn Ulnar ligament. He gone...

Eaton out a few games too - Hamstring and its not even May yet

[Yah Mule]

My auction team's staff: Kershaw, Janssen, Paxton, Nova. I spent $88 on pitching and $48 is on the shelf.

This is the business we have chosen.
Do you think real GM's have injuries to worry about and players that need to be replaced?
Damn right they do.

Eh, they get paid either way.

[Outlaw]

right on schedule, down does Cargo- Hyper Extended Knee..

[Deadheadz]

The radio guys are saying it looks like JJ Hardy pulled his hamstring.

He's been pulled for Lombardozzi so check your sources if you have Hardy.
