And just think - 2 days ago the Cubs had him starting until just before the game

Another bang up job by our crack medical staff

Headfirst slides are the worst

I would bet money that his heel was injured more than they thought as well

Went from hitting 320/360/600 to 260/300/500

Bote needs to become the regular shortstop. Trotting Russell out there as anything but a late-inning defensive replacement is active self-sabotage as far as I’m concerned.

Oh no I've accidentally hit the reset button on the gaming console! I guess we have to start the season over!

How long do these take to heal?

I googled; 4-6 weeks. I'm no expert, but that may effectively end his season

Encarnacion just returned from a hairline wrist fracture. He was out about a month without needing surgery

[17 Seconds]

[Bryant's Disco Ball]

I think he should just tape it up and play. Or just use one hand to bat. And if it's the right hand that's broken, he thankfully can throw with his left. He could even just have them cut the hand off and he'd be better than Addison Russell.
