THE BIG HURT: Hurt file, May 3-8

May 8, 2017
Zach Britton (LHP, BAL) - L Forearm strain (5/6/17)
Britton is following a path that has led many a pitcher to Tommy John surgery. It's not over 'til it's over, but it's a very real possibility at this point. He will see Dr. ElAttrache and go from there.
2017 Impact: Possible loss of season
Est. Return: Late June (best estimate if he avoids surgery)
Brett Anderson (LHP, CHC) - Back soreness (5/6/17)
There's not much here to go on. Anderson has a sore back, but no diagnosis as of yet. These things typically 1-3 weeks to resolve. We'll go with that until more information comes out.
2017 Impact: Minimal
Est. Return: Mid-May
Adrián González (1B, LA) - R Elbow soreness; Back, herniated disk (5/5/17)
The back issue...
Almost!

This is the April we expected, injury-wise. Mercy. And they just keep a-coming. Steele yourselves or you might have some Fitts.

Not a terrible first week, unless you have Jared Jones. Still, quite a few injuries early on.
