Pray For Guti Thread

I didn't see it, but I heard about it, and hearing about it made me sad.

:(

No word on his condition as of 5:35.

5:36 update: Saw it. Pad your damn walls

5:41 update: If I heard Sims right, Guti is day-to-day with a contusion, and x-rays "may have been" negative, whatever that means. If true, our season lives on!

Later update: Confirmation from Stone at Baker's blog.


It doesn't sound as dire as it looked. He has a left elbow and left knee contusion, and x-rays on his knee were negative. He also has an abrasion on his left knee. He's listed as day to day. That's about as good an outcome as you could hope for. It sounds like nothing is broken or sprained.

GUTI IS A MACHINE MADE OF STEEL

Hopefully this will teach him to take a page out of Ichiro’s book and stop making injury-inviting plays.

At least we’re not Detroit.

But still no word on how long he'll be out?

And at the very least, this’ll probably fuck up his hot streak. Oh well. Better than it could’ve been.

This is why Ichiro doesn't dive for balls...

Though I understand it was a wall. Ichiro probably would have stopped short had he realized that he was going to break himself.

Also, WTF with non-padded outfield walls? This isn’t an ancient stadium like Wrigley.

Let’s spread caltrops around specific areas of the outfield next time Detroit comes to Seattle and see how they like it.

Outfield walls need to be padded.

And stadiums need to have retractable roofs.

YES! Absolutely best-case scenario.

A couple of bruises and he skinned his knee. It looked to me like he just had the wind knocked out of him, but I thought that was just what I wanted to see.

Hey there.

Just wanted to say I’m glad Guti is all right. It’s never a good thing to see a guy go down like that.
