Ruh Roh! According to Zolecki...
Doesn't take much analysis to convey how damaging this could be for a repeat. Cole was a 6+ win pitcher last year, so, while it hurts, it isn't deadly. Except, the Phillies overshot their projections, the Mets undershot theirs, the Phils have downgraded a bit while the Mets have upgraded.
It could come down to a win or two at the end of the year and that is where this could really hurt us.
12:08 PM UPDATE: MRI and ultrasound reveal no structural damage; Hamels received a shot "similar to a cortisone shot". Questionable for Opening Day.
You never like to hear about elbow soreness, but I guess the news today was about as good as we could have reasonably expected.
