    Bad news for Rooker

    Broke his forearm tonight, HBP. Out for the rest of the year. He should make the the team in spring training and have a good year in 2021.

    Damn. That sucks. Hopefully that injury is an easy recovery.

    Hopefully it's not his wrist or elbow.

    I wish Rooker well! He's tough enough to come back from it!

    For as much as a player has invested in their career. I would wear the Barry Bonds battle armor.

    He crowded the plate for sure. But he protected himself.

    Amen on the armor. I can’t imagine getting hit with a 95 mph fastball. In high school I took a 72 mph fastball to the inside of the elbow and thought I was going to die. Probably the worst spot to get hit but still, the guy was lobbing it and it about killed me.
