He apparantly hurt it....

Before the big 3-run shot, so hopefully that’s a sign that it wasn’t anything serious.

True, I doubt he would have stayed in the game that long, if it were serious

hopefully just a few days off to recover before the playoffs

why don't they invest

in an X-ray machine for the ballpark. That would get us quicker results!

They barely...

…have room for each players locker, much less X-ray facilities.

The Cubs are not close to league standards when it comes to medical facilities, weight room, clubhouse and batting cages. Problem is, they really can’t do anything about this until they decide to do other major renovations to the grandstand.
