Burke Dislocates Shoulder.. for the THIRD TIME!
While swinging and missing at a pitch from Cubs hurler Sean Marshall(can I possibly blame Sean for this and send him hate mail? No? ok.. hehe), Chris Burke dislocated his left shoulder for the 2nd time this season, 3rd time in his career. Burke recently dislocated the shoulder making a sacrificing catch against the wall earlier in the year. Looks like Chris is going to have to have surgery.. I mean if you dislocate your shoulder by swinging the bat, then you have bigger problems.. This really *****, Chris was starting to get some regular playing time and doing well, hitting a 2 run triple last night, and sitting on a .284 average for his limited 81 at bats this season.
I know the Astro's haven't had the worse luck in baseball this year injury wise.. but it's getting there.. Bagwell, Berkman, Backe, Miller, Burke, Everett, and Oswalt(I think there have been more.. but I can't really remember.. ) all missing time this ear due to injury.
