CTA513 Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 From John Fays blog: [quote][b]Hamilton on the DL [/b] The Reds placed Josh Hamilton on the DL with a sprained right wrist. He's returning to Cincinnati to have an MRI. The cast was removed, and Dr. Tim Kremchek examined the wrist. The move to the DL is retroactive to Saturday. Hamilton hurt the wrist swinging a bat in the on-deck circle. "That's it," manager Pete Mackanin said, "no swinging the bat to warm up. It's too dangerous. Just go up there cold." A player will be added to the roster before the game.[/quote] [url="http://frontier.cincinnati.com/blogs/redsinsider/2007/07/hamilton-on-dl.asp"]http://frontier.cincinnati.com/blogs/redsi...ilton-on-dl.asp[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WhoDeyForever Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 That really hurts the team. Hopefully he can return soon. I love Mackanin's quote though I'm really starting to like Mackanin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTA513 Posted July 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 According to C. Trent Rosecrans its going to be Chad Moeller that takes Hamiltons spot on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|schotzee| Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 So how long is he out?No sense rushing him back from a standings standpoint,but the pressure less experience for the rest of the year could prove to be invaluable for next year.

|Bunghole| Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 I think it was the 15 day DL....he needs more reps as essentially he is a rookie.......... And if you look at him, he came out of the gate hot and cooled off some before the injury at the bat...but his defense, especially his ARM will be noticeably absent in the OF......

Bengals1181 Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 he should be already eligible. He was placed on it Saturday the 7th, but its probably retoractive to that Wednesday or Thursday that he was actually injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
