Injury News

Roy Oswalt of the Astros has a little problem with his hip and had to leave his last start in the 7th inning. As of right now there is no news coming from Houston but he is scheduled to start on Thursday against the Phillies but he may have to miss it. Owners, keep an eye out on this situation. Do nothing until more information is made available.

Stud fantasy pitcher Jake Peavy will miss his next scheduled start due to pain in his elbow. He will go for an MRI on Monday and for owners just sit tight until after the MRI when more information is made available. For now, just hope he doesn't have to sit on the DL for a prolonged time.

Chone Figgins of the Angels, who is currently on the DL with a hamstring injury, is scheduled to return on Tuesday but the Angels have not made it clear if he will be activated. But news coming from Angels camp shows he will most likely be in the lineup by the end of the week. For owners, just hope this injury is completely healed because his entire fantasy value is tied up in him stealing bags.

Chone

Chone Figgins of the Angels left the game last night due to an injury to his hamstring. What is the deal with all these hamstring injuries this year? Owners should worry about this injury but hold off on panic for now. As every owner knows, Figgins can win the SB category alone with his potential of stealing 50+ bags every year (34, 62, 52, and 41 steals during the 04, 05, 06, 07 seasons respectively). Without the steals Figgins is just another waiver wire player. His entire value is set in stolen bases and if he is unable to steal, he's worthless to all owners.

More info will be posted when it comes to light.
