What's going on with Ginn?

[Todd4State]

He has the insurance they give but I have no idea how that works.

Unless I'm mistaken he is also a Boras client/advisee so he has that form of insurance as well.

If you take the money you can never play again.

Just saw he's officially ruled out for this weekend, but they're making it sound like it's more precautionary and not a season ending type deal. Maybe there's hope?

What I'm hearing is inflammation. The problem is this is the second year in a row he has had inflammation.

It is inflammation but sounds like whatever they thought the cause was last year was misdiagnosed. So maybe there's something else??? I don't know how that works but maybe someone else does.

I am curious what his post-game treatment is. If he came off the mound good last outing, and suddenly couldn't go during his Tuesday bullpen due to residual soreness from Friday, it doesn't sound like a structural issue.

Here's the problem:

He didnt pitch last Summer.
He barely threw in the Fall
1 start into the Spring and he is being shutdown for an undetermined amount of time.

It sounds like they are delaying the inevitable. Had he had surgery in July- he would be 6 months into rehab already.

[confucius say]

Can he just go ahead and have the surgery without it being torn?

Doesn't sound encouraging for this year. He had a long rest and obviously that hasn't solved his problem.

Wish the best for Ginn, at least we have time to figure our 3 man starting pitching rotation.

Yes. We just had a kid do this. Quicker recovery BUT it’s still arm surgery so no walk in the park

If there is no apparent structural damage, what is being operated on?

[Coach34]

If there is no apparent structural damage- why wasnt he allowed to pitch in a Summer League or in the Fall?

The whole point of him not pitching was so he could get stronger so this wouldn't happen again. Obvious hasn't worked. If there is nothing there no MD is going to operate on him unless he is a quack. If there was something wrong and the MD found it JT and his family wouldn't delay having surgery I'm sure. There is no point in delaying the inevitable and no MD would recommend delaying surgery if that was the case.

You, quite literally, have no idea what you are talking about. Once aGAIN.

[msstate7]

So, do we have the pitching to compete for the sec now?

[MSUdawg67]

Lot of speculation on here but I’m not sure anyone really has any facts other than the young man is being held out today with what Lemonis describes as “soreness”. Maybe we should hold off until we actually know what diagnosis the orthopedic surgeons find.

You can't be on this here message board using a logical thought process. We are State fans. The sky is falling at all times!*****

Actually, I think there are some that know. Homedawg is one, so I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you

This is pretty much where I am. Not so much on thinking they should have already had surgery, but just on the fact that it doesn't look real good for the possibility of us leaning on him at all this year. They've handled him with kid gloves since late last year and still are, and he is still not 100%.

What was incorrect?

Did he pitch last summer under an assumed name?
Did he throw alot in the Fall at 2am so nobody would see?
He missed his start today and I'll be very shocked if he pitches next weekend.

So- where is my "no idea" incorrect?
