Up until last week, the theme for this major league season was the oblique injury, with a record setting number of this type of injury already having occurred. We get a reprieve if only for a week or so but I’m sure there are better ways to take our minds off these pesky side injuries. This week three high profile players battle elbow issues and all three eventually could be Tommy John candidates.

When I began covering injuries back in 1993, Tommy John surgery was not nearly as successful as it is now. Torn labrums, flexor mass injuries, modified Mumford surgery, microfracture knee surgery and others were rarely reported because they either didn’t exist or the journalist reporting on the injury did not report true name for various reasons. And oblique injuries? Very, very rare.

Up until the past couple of days, the Texas Rangers had been able to avoid placing a player on the disabled list. What does the future hold for the Rangers and Feliz? Plus two veteran bats land on the disabled list.

Two key power hitters, Lance Berkman and Matt Kemp landed on the DL this week along with the stolen base leader in the National League. Over in the American League, Brandon McCarthy of the Athletics is battling right shoulder pain again.
