Could end his career and is possible life-threatening. However, he is not yet considering retirement.

Yikes...well...I wish the best to him, but in retrorespect it's a good thing Kenny didn't trade for him...that's always so bad when a guy's career is derailed due to injury but especially due to something like this, kind of like Billy Kotch.

I was going to say the same thing.

That's a shame to hear. He's one of those guys, like Rich Harden, who I would like to see play a full season because you know he could be so good. Hopefully things work out well for him.

That sucks. He has a ton of talent and potential. Hopefully he gets better and does well for the Rays.

That's rough. I hope he is health enough to live a normal life even if it doesn't include baseball.

I thought that Baldelli could be a nucleus of a decent Tampa Bay team.

Bummer.
