Well he was more useful this year than last. Give me two weeks or competency over a season of "worst player in league"
Edit: wow roto wire has a awesome angle on this story. This injury will allow Goins to get more games in at shortstop (?) and give him SS eligibility in fantasy. Wow. Can't wait till I can play him at short.
And yet somehow, it probably isn't even in the top 50 strangest injuries that a baseball player has suffered...and that's just the ones they've admitted to.
(Once broke a toe walking down stairs)
I was thinking of Glenallen Hill
Hill suffers from an intense condition of arachnophobia. On one occasion, Hill sustained cuts and scrapes on his feet, knees and arm during a violent nightmare about spiders. Hill jumped out of bed, bumped into a glass table and plunged down a staircase, all occurring when he was asleep. Hill ended up being placed on the 15-day disabled list. This led to him being nicknamed "Spiderman."

Am I missing something about Izturis? .635, .597, .639 OPS and below average defense across the IF position.
Kawasaki had a .635 OPS last year and can at least play adequate defense at SS.
If it wasn't for his terrible contract, Izturis wouldn't be on the team anyways.

Once Jansen is healthy I wouldn't mind entertaining offers for Santos to get a good 2nd basemen to fill in for Izturis. We have depth in the bullpen.
