Injuries 2024

I guess he wasn't progressing too quickly after all.

Turns out Gray had full Tommy John surgery today so he’s probably not back until 2026. Oof.

Full TJS and the brace procedure.

He's done.

[Scrapple]

Guess we should pray Parker isn’t next.

Bullpen move by the Nationals: Jordan Weems placed on 15-day IL with right shin splints, Eduardo Salazar recalled from AAA a few days after he had been demoted.

oh, so the shin splints explain it all.

Not buying it, counsellor?

[GataNats]

The hell we keep calling up Salazar?   Get Lasorsa up here

Ruiz heading to the IL, Millas coming up according to TheNatsReport. Hasn't been confirmed yet. Ruiz took a foul ball off the groin yesterday.

Not happy for Keibert, but his play has been a terrible drag on the team.  One of the worst throw out rates in the field along with one of the worst barrel rates at the plate.  Will be interesting to see what Millas can do, if Davey gives him the chance.

Andrew Golden with some updates:

- Joey Gallo will begin a rehab assignment with Rochester tomorrow. The plan: five innings at 1B on Tues. DH full game on Wed. 5-7 innings in RF Thurs.
- Cade Cavalli is throwing again.
- Trevor Williams is throwing at 125 feet, could have a bullpen next week.

CJ was scratched tonight due to back spasms.

[nobleisthyname]

I'll be pretty pissed if/when Gallo has any more PAs this season for the Nats.

place holder for Nunez' hamstring.  Could Baker get the call?

[IanRubbish]

He's hitting .162 in AAA.  He was supposed to be a deadline flip, not sure what the point would be of having him take up an MLB roster spot at this point.

Watch, they'll go with him as the callup. Nattitude.

when he's beyond the time he can be on rehab, he'll be DFA'd.

Per Zuck, Nunez had a cramp but could have stayed in if necessary. Sounds like he's not going on the IL.

[imref]

Tena had a fingernail issue per Nusbaum, x-rays were negative.  Also Abrams will be back Tuesday.

Good news on Law from Zuck:

Derek Law’s MRI was clean, revealed only ulnar nerve irritation. He’s not cleared to throw yet, but he did participate in fielding drills with the other pitchers today.

Call says he has been dealing plantar fasciitis and tore it, so he might end up feeling better. Talknats says he’s going on the 10 day IL. Nats Report says Millas is coming back.

If that's accurate, that's pretty good news compared to the other things it could have been.  Still out for the year, but not next year too.

[Slateman]

Can we call Crews up early?

[Mattionals]

If that's accurate, that's pretty good news compared to the other things it could have been.  Still out for the year, but not next year too.

I remember Zim dealing with Plantar Fascitis a decade ago. I think I remember him saying the docs told him that unless he completely tears the muscle, he won't fully feel better. Sure enough, he tore it and felt better. I guess docs don't want to immediately suggest cutting the muscle off the bone and letting it heal, but it seems that just trying to leave it there never works.

Blanco:

Trevor Williams and Derek Law will both throw to live hitters tomorrow, per Davey Martinez.

Cade Cavalli and Mason Thompson are both still doing light rehabs in West Palm Beach.
