00:00uh dylan cease forearm cramp yikes hunter green groin strain he's already on the il

00:08and then teoscar hernandez groin strain now there were some others we'll get to those

00:12but of those three which is the biggest impact for you and then i'll give you my opinion cease

00:17green and hernandez green and hernandez by the way il cease not il soon right like that's not

00:24okay yes headed on the il so uh what do you got george fantasy wise what's the biggest

00:29impact without knowing long term i mean right now i'd probably go hernandez because he's going to

00:36be out uh you know rob even robert seems to be a little worried that's going to be uh at least uh

00:41a few weeks to a month so i'm sort of cautiously optimistic with cease and green that it's

00:47nothing you know that's going to keep you out to the all-star break or beyond but you said when you

00:51hear four arm curve you always worry here and and by the way cease was pitching great against the

00:57yankees he looked really good all right so it was uh and bellinger hit the home run off him in the

01:02seventh time that's one of those frustrating things by the way he's pitching great got a shutout i think

01:06a one hitter and then bellinger ruins it all for you because san higo didn't hit so you lost your win

01:10you lost your any hits are a complete game shut out and he's just gone you got a quality start if you

01:15count that so uh i'm gonna go hernandez here because he's the one i think he's out the longest right

01:20now but if you ask me which one i worry more about it's probably cease because it's you know

01:26forearm whenever you hit forearm you get scared yeah it's true it's true i look i mean it seems as

01:33though hunter green's gonna miss some significant time maybe month or so but again it's not an arm

01:38injury like initially when i saw that he was leaving the game i that's what was my first thought

01:44you know like his arm something's going on i mean this guy has been so good but the good news is i

01:49guess if there's good news it was a groin injury also a couple of other injury notes here uh jordan

01:54alvarez by now you got to know he was placed on the injured list got to get him out of your starting

01:58lineup uh tommy edmunds still waiting for him to come back after that great start as uh as well

02:03george but you know alvarez is you know clearly a big loss but you know what's kind of funny i don't

02:07know if you're following the story but alvarez has had some very peculiar injury designations through

02:14the years and this one is like a like not like a bruised hand or something which tells you basically

02:20like again i don't know this to be factual but it does feel like maybe ordon was just like i need a

02:24break yeah hand inflammation like i mean you're a major league baseball player like wouldn't three

02:33days off do that trick i don't know i mean he's had some strange stuff happen to him yeah uh what is

02:38it's a muscle strain i believe they they do say he'll be activated when first eligible and with 13th so what

02:43is that 9 11 next tuesday so i don't know if i feel comfortable putting him in my lineup we'll see

02:48uh if i in a league i have if i uh generally when players come back and they're not if my league works

02:54where it's a tuesday and if i can't change him out he's either in or out if it's a weekly lineup league

02:58i might leave him out next week just in case he gets a reoccurrence or he doesn't start hitting right

03:02away you know we could have that as well here so that might worry me tommy edmund we heard he's still

03:06feeling discomfort in his ankle that came out yesterday so maybe he's not coming back and remember

03:10robert said originally he'll be back uh show up but now that might be extended a little bit so we

03:14can worry about that a little bit more as well here uh so injuries it's it's always the same story

03:20every year it always seems like there's a lot more so many more this year than last year but you know

03:24they're probably what's the same amount last year as well and uh you need to survive them it is need to

03:30survive them and it seems to me when i look at my leagues the teams that are in first place or doing well

03:34are those teams that don't have nine injuries they only have two or three
