Rafael Betancourt May Have Torn Elbow Ligament 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Aug 23, 2013 12:13 pm

The Colorado Rockies fear that Rafael Betancourt may have suffered a serious elbow injury.


Betancourt will undergo an MRI on Monday. The fear is that he tore a ligament and will be done for the season.


If the 38-year-old suffered a torn UCL, his career may be over as well.


"It's not good. It's very sore right now. I have gone through a lot of pain throughout my whole career, but this is completely different," Betancourt said after Thursday's loss. "I could not throw another pitch."
