Darvish could miss opening day
http://outsidepitchmlb.com/2014/03/2...s-opening-day/
You know the saying, “bad things happen in threes.” The Texas Rangers can attest to that.
They heard late Sunday night that second baseman Jurickson Profar would miss 10-to-12 weeks after suffering a muscle tear in his shoulder. It was also reported on Monday that catcher Geovany Soto would miss three months after suffering a meniscus tear.
The third blow might be the biggest.
According to multiple reports, including NolanWritin.com, ace Yu Darvish could miss his Opening Day start as he’s suffering from a stiff neck that’s not improving.
The somber news leaves the Rangers in a predicament for Opening Day. Who are some possible candidates for Opening Day? It could be Martin Perez with other candidates being Tanner Scheppers, Joe Saunders and Tommy Hanson. It would likely come from within as it’s nearly impossible to replace an Ace this late into Spring Training with another high quality pitcher.
