Crisis at the Corner
Holy Cow! Why hasn't this been a top story of spring training? Derek Jeter takes a few days off and it is all over the papers.
Adrian Beltre has a leaking wound from an appendectomy. He can't eat, has lost 20 pounds, and needs an IV every night. He hasn't had solid food for 50 days! And has to wear an "abdominal bag".
And I read about it while looking for more Sheffield articles. I knew he had had surgery, but I didn't imagine it was quite this dire.
I'm surprised the teams don't have medivac insurance for their Latin players. They could fairly easily fly them out to Miami at a moment's notice.
