Now, explain this to me:

If the Cardinals believe in the kinetic chain, why are they bringing him back after a minimal stay on the DL when he's had multiple injuries to that kinetic chain? ****, their doctors are so goddamned incompetent. They must sort by physicians with the greatest number of malpractice settlements.

its really stupid. Both times rushed back ASAP. And for what? We are not in a pennant race. And Meathead would have let Martinez talk him into to staying in to finish the inning despite his fastball dropping to 90 MPH.
