June 9, 201313 yr Mike Berardino reports that Alex Meyer is on the shelf with a sore shoulder. http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_23423147/minnesota-twins-meyer-shelf
June 9, 201313 yr I hope it's not surgery. Shoulder pain could be something like a labrum tear... those are worse that TJ to return from.
June 10, 201313 yr Like, bi-lateral shoulder weakness? Or bi-lateral labrum tear? There is a difference, lets hope the former.
June 10, 201313 yr I saw this article the other day and was pretty fascinated - trevor bauer's pitching guru is claiming he can increase velocity while reducing/eliminating injuries. wonder if the twins have bought in to any of this. Ron Wolforth and the Texas Baseball Ranch - MensJournal.com
June 10, 201313 yr Hope it's just Meyer needing some rest. It would be nothing short of absolutely devastating to lose one of the few arms in this organization with #1/2 stuff. At the end of the day it is impossible to have too many arms in your system. Get well soon Alex
June 10, 201313 yr Or, it could just be a sore shoulder... If it's his non throwing shoulder it likely isn't a big deal but if it's his throwing side shoulder it has to cause some concern. How many times does a pitcher have a sore shoulder and it turns out to be nothing serious?
June 10, 201313 yr Tough not to be a little alarmed by any kind of shoulder soreness for a pitching prospect.
June 10, 201313 yr Or, it could just be a sore shoulder... The TD medical staff would have operated and/or amputated yesterday.
June 13, 201313 yr Mlb.com is reporting that Meyer's MRI came back "clean." So, nothing serious, even though Meyer is still on the 7 day DL
June 13, 201313 yr Mlb.com is reporting that Meyer's MRI came back "clean." So, nothing serious, even though Meyer is still on the 7 day DL Good news. Best to still be careful with him though. He's not a part of the Twins' present, but he's a big part of the Twins' future. Kid gloves, I say.
