enough golf talk for now let's talk baseball

Let's talk to the news of the day

Jacob de Grom struck out eight and the nine first night players he

He batters he faced three perfect endings the S and Y broadcast was talking

Oh he doesn't look he doesn't seem happy he doesn't look right

He's taking a longer period of time he he looks uncomfortable, sure enough, straight to the dugout or the clubhouse after an ending the third inning, they take him out, and now it's, and he's out of the game, Sean Reed Foley's in. He's been dealing with soreness earlier, had a DL, IL trip earlier earlier I said a DL IL but you know you guys know

This is this is scary stuff

You know I don't know whether to be relieved that one it's not the elbow and two it's something different from the oblique

Or really worried because it's the shoulder the shoulder is something as good as we've got at repairing elbows

A shoulder can be a lot more have a lot more long-term ramifications. I remember writing about DeGrom in the offseason. And I had him, I think I had him 14th on my top 100, which got a lot of pushback. And I said, you know, if you look at him in 18, 19 and 20, there was always something, some kind of nagging injury that I thought would chip away at the workload.

It feels like, you know, he hasn't blown out his elbow like so many guys have, but it's always been something.
