March 27, 201412 yr Fucking hell. I can't believe we're going to have Solano to start the season. How long do broken hands take to heal?
March 27, 201412 yr f***ing hell. I can't believe we're going to have Solano to start the season. How long do broken hands take to heal? A lot longer that you think, considering I broke mine almost 2 months ago and just now out of a cast that didn't even allow my thumb to move. I'm still looking at another 2 1/2 weeks before I can assume unrestricted duty. The doctor told me I was a fast healer. It all has to do with blood supply. A larger bone is sure to have better blood flow than many in the hand, which can be rather spotty.
March 27, 201412 yr Gotta real feel for the guy. He had a very respectable mlb year last year then makes the team out of spring only to break his hand. Bummer.
March 27, 201412 yr Well at least it's a non displaced fracture so he could be back sooner rather than later . And I'm not worried about Solano just cuz he's a backup, and at least he wasn't given the starting job.
March 27, 201412 yr thats really terrible but something told me it would be a fracture when I heard the news. I mean Solano had a good spring but I am definitely a bigger fan of Lucas who is more versatile as well. I can't stand these late injuries.
March 28, 201412 yr Alvarez got drilled by a liner by Skippy down on the back fields today too, I heard the trainer ask if they could take the next couple of days off until opening day
March 28, 201412 yr Very sorry to Lucas and Furcal, on the other hand, the injured "Regular" players are a few at spring camp. I'm very relieved. Stanton, Jones and Salty etc. almost every core hitters are fine as healthy, even rotation. I've never seen like this before. Very competitive mood thru the camp. Look at Rangers, Tigers and Braves. One team bought a player via short end trade. Some team still looking for replacement.

As much as I love Lucas on the bench, Solano is fine in the same role because we have Jeff Baker. Without Baker, this would blow.

March 28, 201412 yr He went to Dartmouth right? I bet he diagnosed himself. I assume he's also doing the operation
March 28, 201412 yr Operation? I dunno I'm just assuming they have to do some sort of operation for a hand fracture. I'll defer to Ed Lucas on the matter though.
March 28, 201412 yr I dunno I'm just assuming they have to do some sort of operation for a hand fracture. I'll defer to Ed Lucas on the matter though. Lol I'm pretty sure your all just playing around but for anyone wondering it's a nondisplaced fracture so, like Dietrichs nose, I'm pretty certain there's no surgery needed and it pretty much heals on it's own. Which is also why he's pretty lucky, it could have been worse .
March 28, 201412 yr This was a freak accident, but I think we could have seen Furcal not being healthy from a mile away. I mean he's 36 and didn't play last year due to injury.
March 29, 201412 yr 4 to 6 weeks. http://miami.marlins.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20140328&content_id=70323438¬ebook_id=70372870&vkey=notebook_mia&c_id=mia
March 29, 201412 yr That's not too bad, I guess. I just hope they don't get enamored with Solano during that time. This guy has a knack for just sticking..

March 29, 201412 yr My hope is that they start Dietrich at second and Baker at first against lefties. Probably won't happen, though, but whatever.
March 29, 201412 yr My hope is that they start Dietrich at second and Baker at first against lefties. Probably won't happen, though, but whatever. Well... kind of works out Furcal is hurt. Dietrich against righties, Baker at second against lefties. Until Furcal is healthy, then Dietrich goes to AAA and hopefully by then Jones sucks so bad against LHP that Baker starts to platoon over there. It should work itself out.
