Today's lineup and some news: Bedard a likely scratch Saturday

Posted by Larry Stone

Erik Bedard has a tight right hamstring, and manager Don Wakamatsu just told us that he' a likely scratch for his next start, which was to be Saturday at Safeco against the Red Sox. Garrett Olson is likely to get the start. The Mariners don't think the injury to Bedard -- who tweaked his hammy in his last start -- is serious enough for the disabled list. They think he will be able to pitch soon if they don't push it.

Ronny Cedeno and Wladimir Balentien are both back in the lineup, as is Mike Sweeney. I'll have much more -- including Don Wakamatsu's explanation for why he didn't pinch-hit for Ken Griffey Jr. -- once I transcribe my tape.

My point was i think he deserves a pass on this one. If he does it repeatedly THEN you can start calling him a weanie.  Posted on May 14, 2009 at 10:02 AM by hitdeep. Jump to comment
Bedard has shown some real grit this season so far. I'm inclined to say this is not the same Bedard from last year.  Posted on May 14, 2009 at 10:01 AM by hitdeep. Jump to comment
Since when does getting hurt make you a "weanie". He can't control it. Do you think he chooses to get hurt?  Posted on May 14, 2009 at 10:23 AM by Faceplant. Jump to comment
