Mack Ade 2B Justin Turner – ankle injury on wet grass 1st inning – probably out for season

Well no more Turner over Tejada debates I guess.
UPDATE: It just gets better. So the case could be made that both of these players should have been with the MLB team. You can’t play the “Well they would not have gotten injured up here” game but it does seem like karma.

If it wasn’t for bad luck, the mets would have no luck at all.
If he was up on the mets instead of Tejada, like they should have done, this would never have happened!

Add FMart to that list also possibly.

Can you update this with the Fmart info? I was trying to add Rubin’s tweet.

I wish Fmart would have half the career that Alou had though. At least Alou waited until his was basically over.

assuming this is not a day to day thing, entirely possible he is done for the year again. At least based on his history.
and if that happens, by the time he gets back to playing, he might be about 10th on the OF prospect depth chart!

Our hope is that history repeats itself and Fmart’s troubles are that of Reyes when he was young.

The knee issues for an OF prospect are troublesome for sure.
