The Paranoid Fan Who's Waiting to Make Sure Axford's Arm is OK Thread

[splitterpfj]

Did that last one hit him on the elbow?

[adamb100]

Looked like he was fine when talking to Lucroy after the game.

 

Will have to see.

[Oldcity]

Looked like the elbow on the replays... The good thing is that ball wasn't hit extremely hard.

[pitchleague]

looked more like the hip to me, with a slight glance on the forearm. I'm pretty sure he'll be fine or we'd have seen it on his face during all those close up shots.

Hello, I'd like to join your club. Do we disband the club after a team announcement that Axford's 'fine'? Or do we get to stay together until he's gone out & thrown another dominant relief appearance?

 

Thanks.

This was my impression as well.

Reading his lips when talking to Lucroy right as the game ended:

 

"It hit my forearm but I'm alright."

Yep, thats it. Hit his forearm. I doubt there's any way to know if it will be a problem until they check it tomorrow and see where he's at...

 

He went directly to the clubhouse, there was at least some minor concern about it

On TBS after they game they said Axford was going to get X-rays done. Maybe its just extra precautionary, but still scares me.

Losing Axford would be a blow but not a death blow. K Rod would close, Saito to the 8th.

#[/s]Brewers closer John Axford, who was hit on forearm by liner on last play, was wearing compression sleeve but said he was OK. Just bruised.

I don't think my heart could handle K-Rod closing.

We should probably wait until he has another dominant appearance, just to make sure.

 

Will there be Tang and Marshmallow Squares at the first club meeting? If so, I'm in.

Who gets to determine if it is a dominant outing?

I see no other option than to nominate a panel of experts to decide on this most important matter.

I disagree with the appointment of these so called "experts."

[markedman5]

Xray negative.....still up in the air about availability for tomorrow.

[FVBrewerFan]

Who determines who qualifies as said "experts?" Is there an appeals process?

Seconded. All in favor?

Sounds like this is no big deal, fortunately.
