Two weeks away from Opening day and the Mariners have several key players on the 40-man roster spending more of their time in the training room than on the field. If you haven’t seen the list of injuries, let me introduce you to Mariners beat writer for the Seattle Times, Ryan Divish. He put together a nice little summary for us.
If you aren’t up for clicking the link, here’s the list:
- Ryon Healy, 1B (hand)
- Erasmo Ramirez, SP (lat strain)
- Ben Gamel, OF (oblique strain)
- Felix Hernandez, SP (forearm)
- Nick Rumbelow, RP (shoulder)
- Marco Gonzales, SP (hand)
- Robinson Cano, 2B (hamstring)
- Nelson Cruz, DH (quad)
- Andrew Romine, UTL (shoulder)
And just in case looking at that list doesn’t hurt enough, let me spell out the impact for you.
