middy19 Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 Ken Griffey Jr. strained his right calf while running out a groundball Monday night and left the Cincinnati Reds' game as a precaution.Not sure how serious it is but this is just what the Reds need. Quote

You GOT to be joking. And great avatar. Quote
richmond_mat Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 Man griffey is like china doll, more like an aging star that did not take care of his body, relied on raw talent and now the body is deteriating quickly. Damn Pinella knew this and traded him. Quote
Kirkendall Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 Griff will be ok. This is his year, I can feel it. Quote
The Brew Man Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 Griff will be ok. This is his year, I can feel it. Well, i hope youre right, and a strained calf has never gotten so much press probably, but......Whiffey is sooooo injury prone that the smallest thing can lead to bigger problems. I hope it is his year though, i really do.... Quote
middy19 Posted March 30, 2004 Author Report Posted March 30, 2004 I think that he is listed as day to day so it does not sound that serious. Quote
halp Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 sorry guys....but the never ending saga....grif is a great guy.....BUT.....it just isn't happening here for him. last winning season was before he arrived. nothing personal.....but i do hope for HIS and OUR sake he gets traded some where and all benefit. go reds Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Griff will be ok. This is his year, I can feel it. Please God. Let the "Nations Sensation" be right...again! Quote
chrishcovga Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Yeah , I have to agree, I think Grif jr. did rely too much on his natural talent, and didn't prepare his body for his 30's. He's taking a pounding playing Baseball, and that don't make sense unless you're a catcher. I'll give him credit though, everytime he gets hurt, he's trying to make a play.He's kind of like a Boxer, that doesn't know when to hang up the gloves.. like Holifield. Sure he still looks the part, but after 20 + years of taking the hits, his mind can't comprehend what his body won't do anymore. Quote
jditty47 Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 cant we do griffey like a wounded horse, shoot his ass and put him out of his misery. My god, he tried to turn to run to first for godsake. MY GRANDMA COULD DO THAT WITHOUT GETTING INJURED!!!!!!! Quote

Well it must not have been too bad. He just took Maddux deep for a two run homer in the third inning! Please God let Junior be a force this year!! Quote
Kirkendall Posted April 8, 2004 Report Posted April 8, 2004 Hell ya, he had a great swing on it. He's looking very good thus far.. Quote
The Brew Man Posted April 8, 2004 Report Posted April 8, 2004 Yeah, im glad at least he still has his timing, that was a nice HR.... Quote
jditty47 Posted April 9, 2004 Report Posted April 9, 2004 2 more singles today in the win...man i hope his sorry butt stays healthy! Quote
Kirkendall Posted April 9, 2004 Report Posted April 9, 2004 He will. This will be his finest year as a Red. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted April 9, 2004 Report Posted April 9, 2004 He will. This will be his finest year as a Red. I'll toast to that!! Quote
