Nathan still the closer?

[tomdalton22]

You can't wish injury on anyone. Like the guy or not, come on now.

he is already injured...I just don't want him to get better until after the season!

 

[dubbsco]

That's wishing further injury on him.

 

[tomdalton22]

That's wishing further injury on him.

I don't want him to get any worse....just not any better. He is already injured, collecting $61,728 for every game he doesn't play. He needs to just ride off into the sunset!

 

[dubbsco]

I'm not arguing that he should be the starter. That's Soria's job now. But come on man you don't need to mince words, you want him to stay hurt/be hurt further, and that's kinda lame.

per ESPN Nathan threw 10 pitches in Toledo game and has reinjured his elbow....Oh Damn

I'm with Dub on this one. Bad karma when you want someone to stay injured..

How is he going to try to blame this on the fans at the Copa?

Didn't sound good for Joe Blow. DetNews.com articles quotes it as "scary pain" in the forearm.

Addition by subtraction, on and off the field.

Nathan needs to retire like yesterday. I hope he gets well soon. You need your right elbow to play golf.

 

[kingofdetroit57]

I heard him say it felt like his arm broke, and there was a pop/snap in his elbow. Those feelings generally aren't good ones that indicate minor injury for a pitcher.

The popping sound was the champagne bottle being opened.

Seriously, I do not wish harm for anyone. But, there is more positives in him remaining out then there are negatives.

Spot on. I feel bad that he needs surgery and is injured, but just like the Pistons trading Josh Smith, this is addition by subtraction.

I heard Ausmus was gonna bring Nathan back as a lefty closer.
