The steps of being diagnosed with Ulnar Collateral Ligament Tear:
Forearm Tightness ? check
Early MRI ? Check
Seeing Dr. James Andrews for a 2nd opinion - Check
Those are also the steps David Price has done so far in a matter of early Wednesday March 1st. Things that may follow:
Scheduling TJS ? Unchecked
Rehab for a year ? Unchecked

Remember the whole Price/Greinke debate on who the Jays should sign? There was a report that came out saying the training staff/team docs would rather have Greinke because his pitching style was more likely to stay at it’s level over time, and they didn’t like Price’s little wrist snap after some pitches thinking it added extra pressure. Well, if that’s what helped cause this (and the fact he throws a crap ton every yr), Jays look smartttt

I can't list my 2nd main keeper as there are too many players, but it is a keep all H2H points-only league
Good thing he didn't stay with the Jay's. They have to be secretly smiling. Advantage Jay's.
Update:
The MRI was conducted and showed swelling and some fluid buildup, but the results were inconclusive, thus the second opinion. However, Farrell said Price had improved between Wed and Thursday. With the potential of an ulnar tear, that means little.
The earliest they’ll know an update from Dr. Andrews will be Friday late afternoon

No Tommy John surgery for Price... wow that is surprising!!
That shocked me so much. But, still a chance it flairs up again and it's not just a rest thing.

I generally avoid star pitchers anyways, so this dropped the chance on me owning him from slim to none.
