Braves' Jason Heyward Has 'Strained' Ligament

New, 1 comment

According to DOB of the AJC, Jason Heyward’s injured thumb will not require surgery. Reading between the lines, though, it looks like he might have to miss some more time, and even spend some time on the 15-day disabled list.

He also says that the thumb has been bothering Heyward and getting worse for six weeks. Now we know why he’s been slumping. This is deja vu from last season when Jordan Schafer had a nagging injury. Could we get our peeps healthy!
