The Hornets have been getting batted down by injuries the past several weeks. The first significant extended injury occurred to star secondbaseman Gary McLernon. Then, as he was coming back, in quick succession top-of-the-order hitter Andrew Padgett was lost for four months with a broken kneecap, centerfielder Claude "Yes, I am overpaid and underperforming" Knight was lost for a couple of weeks due to a strained rib cage, and then backup/erstwile starting centerfielder Jesus Gonzalez was lost for six weeks due to a partially torn labrum. Those three represent three of the top four outfielders on the team. And this was consummated at the end of the trading period, leaving Eureka scrambling for options.
The team is wondering about getting a new trainer, and secondquessing having the outfielders run all the aisles in the stadium from bottom to top prior to games.
