With the MLB season just around the corner, the injury bug is already making headlines, and it’s raising some serious questions about player conditioning and team management. The recent news about Gunnar Henderson's intercostal strain has sparked a lot of chatter, and it seems like the Orioles might be facing a tough start to the season if he can't recover in time.
This brings us to a broader discussion: Are teams doing enough to prevent injuries during spring training? With so many players already sidelined, including Giancarlo Stanton and Luis Gil, it feels like we’re seeing a pattern that could derail several teams' seasons before they even begin.
What do you think? Is the intensity of modern spring training too much for players who are still ramping up after the offseason? Should teams consider a more cautious approach to player readiness, even if it means missing out on early season games?
And let’s not forget about the impact of these injuries on the teams' overall performance. If Henderson is out for an extended period, how will that affect the Orioles' chances in a competitive AL East?
I’m curious to hear your thoughts on these injuries and how they might shape the upcoming season. Do you have any bold predictions for teams that might struggle due to early injuries? Or perhaps you have insights on how teams can better prepare their players to avoid these issues? Let’s dive into this discussion!
