You Can Ring My Kettlebell

Joe Musgrove of the Padres dropped a kettlebell on his left big toe and will be out an indefinite length of time. Manager Bob Melvin:

“We’ll see. It’s kind of tough to forecast when you have a broken toe,” Melvin told reporters. “It’s going to be more about how it heals. Certainly if it’s a pain tolerance thing, Joe would be one of those guys that would be sooner than later. But obviously we have to evaluate how he’s feeling every day and we’ll see where we go.”

Musgrove pitched very well the last two season, posting 181 innings in each with good ERAs. The seasons were about as consistent as you can imagine. With luck, he’ll have enough time to get ready for early April.
