Daily notes on your players from rototimes.com 06.27 Kenny Rogers broke a bone at the base of his right pinkie in his non-pitching hand when he hit a water cooler in frustration in his last start on June 17th, according to the AP. He will miss at least one start, and he could miss another turn as well since it would take 10-12 days for the broken bone to heal completely …
Poor Kenny, and here he is trying to negotiate a contract extension. I had him projected for two starts this week, now he has none. Boo-hoo?
I think his last start was on the 22nd, not the 17th. And if you look at his numbers for the 22nd you may see why he is so frustrated. He only gave up 1 run in 6-1/3 innings on the 17th, that doesn’t sound very frustrating. Just think Kenny, if you gave up this fruitless pursuit of pitching in the majors, you wouldn’t get so frustrated.
