Another one bites the dust…

how much is too much? [shakes fist at heavens]

Not a big deal. The drop off from Varitek to (insert name) is not as big as the drop off from Vmart to Varitek. And Vmart is only gonna miss like 10 more games anyway. Just seems bad because of the ridiculous amount of injuries they’ve suffered.

I wonder why Nike or some other Cleat Manufacturer come up with a Baseball shoe that has a hard, kevlar type shell to protect hitters feet from the effects of a foul ball, or other injury. I know some hitters wear some ankle and elbow protection, but in light of Pedroia, and now Varitek’s foot injuries, this should be a simple solution to help prevent this type of injury in the future.

@Annoyed
If they make a cleat that is stiff to prevent the baseballs from breaking players’ feet then how would they move in them? I would guess that these things have already been taken into consideration and the current cleats are probably made thick enough to try to prevent this, but at the same time not hinder the player from running. All you can say in this situation is “Sh** happens”.

Would you be fascinated about exchanging links?
