Nick Johnson Exits with Hamstring Injury; Placed on Disabled List

[Marlinsfan4lyfe]

Nick Johnson finally to the DL retro to August 16

[Bingebag]

I really thought he was past getting hurt every year. I'm such a wishful-thinking douche bag.

[Jewbility]

So he'll be back in 6 days.

[Ramp]

this is Nick Johnson we're talking about

he'll prob miss 4 weeks with this injury

[Jewbility]

i don't think it's a coincidence our slide has occurred as he has been out. who knew he'd be the reason we both had a chance at playoffs, and subsequently lost it

[Fish and Chips]

so who gets callup? maybin or BC?

[Ramp]

Should be BC

[Jewbility]

at this point, wouldn't it be better to get some fresh meat in there to possibly jump start the offense until NJ gets back? I don't expect 1.5 months of consistency out of Cam, but the initial return could provide sparks.

[Marlinsfan4lyfe]

I think they keep Maybin down until the september roster expansions. It will probably be BC that gets the call up

[Longview]

Gaby.

Oh, he's up already? Could have fooled me.

[Bobbob1313]

Should be BC

.179/.273/.282/.555

If Cam hadn't been hurting recently, there would be no question he would deserve to get called up. At this point neither has been very good over the last few weeks, but I guess BC has his health going for him.

[Ramp]

I have no clue who's numbers those are

[Bobbob1313]

Brett Carroll's over the last 2 weeks. Sorry.

He came out red hot at AAA, but hasn't done anything since. Maybin has been equally bad, though he's also been hurt. I'm probably inclined to agree with you, but only because Maybin's been injured. If he was healthy now, he should be up.

[Ramp]

I don't see the point in calling up Maybin only to sit on his keester

[Bobbob1313]

I would hope he starts. We already have one guy who doesn't play, Fredi wouldn't have two.
