Latos Has Been Pitching With Abdominal Strain 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Sep 24, 2013 8:34 pm

Mat Latos has been pitching with an abdominal strain for nearly three months.


Latos says he suffered the injury in late June during a game against the Texas Rangers.


"I've been pitching with an abdominal strain since the Texas game," Latos said. "I think it was at the end of June."


Latos told the Cincinnati Enquirer about the injury while discussing recent criticism he received from Cincinnati Reds fans during a game last week against the Pittsburgh Pirates.


"I pitched real well all year and I hear nothing but good things," Latos said. "But I pitched against the Pirates and I have a bad start. [With] certain Reds fans, I'm not allowed to have that.


"Let alone, no fan knows that I've been dealing with an injury since the Texas Rangers game -- and I've been pitching with it. So I've been pitching the way I've been pitching, but I've been pitching hurt."
