Weird Baseball Injuries

We will be keeping track of weird baseball injuries at Florio Facts. Here are the goods for 2013 so far:


  • Carl Pavano: Ruptured his spleen shoving snow in his driveway. Somehow, quite fitting for Carl Pavano.
  • Joel Peralta: Hurt his neck getting out of his Camaro because he stopped for sandwiches. According to HardballTalk, he was able to acquire such sandwiches. Takes the cake so far.
  • Michael Ynoa: Dude's got Chicken Pox.
  • Andrew Cashner: Cut his hand (thumb) on a deer hunting trip. Mainly his friend's fault.
  • Francisco Liriano: Broke his right arm trying to surprise his kids on Christmas by slamming a door. Why? What does this accomplish?
  • Sean Burnett: Hurt his back picking his kid up to put in a shopping cart. Really? How big is the kid?
  • Casey Kotchman: Ran into a pop-up machine in the outfield during drills. Per HardballTalk: "Kotchman was injured when he “tried to get around the machine and grabbed onto it and I guess cut his finger somehow."
