Johnson Hurt, Abnormally Large Door Swings Open For Meat Hook’s Return
By Chris Mottram | May 15, 2008
It seems just cruel and unusual for a team that isn’t very good to begin with to have this many injuries. From Dukes, to Chief, to Dmitri, to Lo Duca (go fuck yourself), to Hill. Now, the latest to hit the D.L. is Nick Johnson, who is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, according to Chico, the new guy over at Nats Journal:
Nationals are putting their first baseman on the 15-day DL. An MRI this morning revealed a tear of the tendon sheath in his right wrist. The injury problems for Johnson continue. Dmitri Young will rejoin the club tomorrow to take his place.
First three sentences are sad (and WTF is a “tendon sheath”?). But the fourth sentence is glorious! Da Meat Hook back in the starting line-up, and they didn’t even have to throw him out in left field, as I so cleverly suggested earlier in the season. Plus, this helps to reunite the fattest infield in baseball.

Another example of two finely tuned athletes at work.
