[外電] Weaver unlikely to pitch against Tiger
OAKLAND -- Jered Weaver flew back to Los Angeles on Wednesday morning to
visit with Dr. Lewis Yocum, who will examine Weaver's sore right shoulder to
determine his status moving forward.
Manager Mike Scioscia has yet to say anything definitive on Weaver, opting to
wait for word from the team's medical department, but the Angels' ace hasn't
thrown since taking a comebacker off his pitching shoulder on Sunday and is
unlikely to pitch in the upcoming weekend series against the Tigers.
The question now seems to be how much more time Weaver will miss on top of
that.
"Let's just wait. We're going to hold it," Scioscia said when asked directly
about Weaver's scheduled start on Friday. "We have time to make this
decision. We have a day off [on Thursday], which can help things, so we're
going to just wait for some direction and we'll make a decision."
September was going to be a month when the Angels would lean heavily on
Weaver, who's 16-4 with a 2.86 ERA and has been the one constant in a
star-studded rotation that struggled mightily for almost two months. Weaver
was going to start almost every fifth day in September, setting him up to
make seven starts and line up for the regular-season finale.
But those plans may have changed in the fifth inning of Sunday's game in
Seattle, when a line drive off the bat of Mariners second baseman Dustin
Ackley caught the right-hander's right shoulder.
Weaver finished that frame, then exited with one out and two on in the sixth
after 86 pitches. Afterward, he downplayed his shoulder injury, saying: "It
feels all right. It kind of grazed, kind of hit it off my glove and then hit
my arm. It didn't really get me square, as much as it looked like it did. It
didn't really square me up too bad, so it didn't really affect anything."
But it turns out, it will at least alter the Angels' weekend rotation plans.
Now, in a series with major postseason ramifications, it will be right-hander
Ervin Santana starting on Friday against Max Scherzer, C.J. Wilson starting
on Saturday against Justin Verlander and Zack Greinke starting on Sunday
against Anibal Sanchez. The Thursday off-day allows everyone to be on normal
rest.

之前被Ackley的強襲球K到右手
似乎比預期還要嚴重
要先回LA去接受檢查 決定是否會影響未來的出賽
希望沒事
今年還是很有機會爭奪CYA的
