Carrillo Gone for Season in Mercer Island Monday, August 23rd , 2055 Mercer Island reliever Juan Carrillo could miss the remainder of the season because of a damaged elbow ligament. He exited yesterday's St. Petersburg game after injuring himself while throwing a pitch. The original diagnosis said Carrillo would be out 14-15 months. Later on his doctors said he could be out even longer. "He's done," his manager commented at the BNN press conference. "It's a season-ending injury, but it could have been worse. It's not the worst-case scenario, so we're happy about that." He has made 20 relief appearances this year with 3 saves. Carrillo has achieved a 1-1 record while holding opposing hitters to a .269 batting average and posting a 2.67 ERA. He has tossed 30.1 innings, given up 32 base hits, fanned 28 and issued 5 walks. |
