Third basemen Scott Rolen recently fractured the middle finger on his right hand while doing fielding drills at a Blue Jay Practice. The latest news is that Rolen had a pin inserted into that middle finger by a hand specialist and is expecting to have the pin removed April 7th. Doctors have said that after the pin is removed it will be an uncertain amount of time before Rolen returns to the Toronto Lineup. They have stated that there is a good chance he will be out until late April early May. Basically there has been a 4-6 week window placed on his comeback. Rolen is currently walking around with a soft cast on his injured hand.
This is a big blow to the Blue Jay lineup and could really hurt the team this season if this becomes a reoccurring injury, which fingers often become. Keep your eyes open for updates on the Third Basemen as I bring them to you.
