So is Ginn having surgery?

[confucius say]

Saw a post in the long thread from last week that he is having the surgery. Any update as to whether that is true?

[Lumpy Chucklelips]

The powers that be are keeping this quieter than the CIA does in an operation against China. But in talking to the "supposed" know it alls with boots on the ground, they say that he is having surgery. Time will tell....I guess. Then again, he may disappear and we may never know.

It's weird because it seems like everyone in the know is saying he is having surgery but it seems like JT has been telling people he isn't. Not sure if it's a privacy thing or if he is having trouble processing things or what the situation is.

If you collectively put all the info together between last year and this year, it's somewhat easy to infer what may be going on.

It's a tough situation.

What Id advise JT to do is to do what's in the best interest to your career 5 years from now.

That smn in his arm feels off and decision is made to not pitch through it for fear of tearing smn? That's all I can infer. I guess that's the right decision, but sucks.

What is smn??

Good question.

I'm no doctor and I'm not sure where all this conversation has gone. Maybe he's having surgery and maybe not but I've been curious if the misdiagnosis (assuming there was one) is the difference between tendinitis and tendinosis. I go back to that LSU series last year when it was pretty visible that JT was off and fighting it. I know they had those lefties in the line up but just his face and his reaction reminds me of a guy who wasn't willing to give up. He battled and it was visible that he was talking to himself almost as if he was telling himself come you sorry bastard he can't hit you, nut up and fight through the pain. He gets a bad rap from some fans for being weak but I would say I see the opposite. That's just my two cents for what it's worth which may not be much and I have zero inside info....

Supposedly there is no tear but something is wrong and wont go away. He's been given all the rest possible- so not sure where they will go from here.

34 is right, it's not ligament or tendon related.

[Maverick]

I guess that's why I was curious about the tendinosis because of the time frame and the fact that it could've continued to be reinjured when they thought it was healed. Interesting....

Ok, so what does that leave, smn muscular?

I can't say, but the kids doing everything he can to get back out there. He's been hurting and trying to work through this. Sometimes no matter how big your heart, your body physcially just won't let you do what you need to do. The kid is a competitor and wants to be out there, he's not or will he ever throw in the towel. This is not because of a lack of heart.

No doubt. I don't believe he's just being a pansy.

Yes sir, you are correct.

fans that call a guy "weak" for not playing through legit injuries are the worst and should go kick rocks. He's not sitting out for a common cold or a scratchy throat or some minor ailment.

Nothing Makes me want to punch someone in the face more than running down our players, especially ones that are giving it their all like he has. I have found that most of these "fans" never played a meaningful minute of sports at even a competitive high school level.

[CadaverDawg]

go kick rocks.

Joe, that you? Now I know why our offense hasn't clicked in baseball yet, you're still hanging around.*

[shoeless joe]

Has anyone said he was weak and wasn’t trying his best? It may have been said but I haven’t read it.

Not sure if on here. But I've been shown messages where it's been said by people who wore the uniform that we babied him too much.
