Dear lord. This guy and injuries. I really hate to throw around the injury prone label, but if anyone on this team is injury prone it's definitely Correa. All of these injuries are starting to really stack up.
Springer, Altuve and Correa. 3 of our top 4 guys to go along with 3-5 depth guys. On bright side is none of them seem super serious
On the negative side, specifically for Carlos. Broken ribs hurt and take time, they also can be very tender after they heal, combined with his back problems and sore side/rib/oblique areas that could give reason for concern
Takes a lot to crack a rib. Didn't they say his soreness came from some sort of treatment he was receiving at home? Yes having had a cracked rib before they do hurt like a mother and take a long time for the pain to go away. Even with pain medication it would be difficult to swing the bat or bend over to field his position and throwing will hurt as well.
