Crawdad Chronicles 51.01 - Rule 5 Pickup falls down stairs

Post by JimBob2232 » Mon May 23, 2022 4:52 pm

New Orleans drafted MR Troy Andrews in the rule 5 draft. Hurried to get to the Big easy, Andrews was rushing to get packed up, and while carrying his household goods down the stairs, he tripped and fell and down 2 flights of stairs, fracturing his wrist, straining his rib cage, and injuring his left knee.

GM Jim Roberts noted that it is expected to hold him out of commission for about 2 months. "Rough break for the kid...no pun intended". Andrews has never pitched above AA, but last season had a 0.84 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and a stunning 475ERA+. New orlens thought it was worth a shot to try to sure up their bullpen.

But now, the ghostly, super smart, clumsy, injury prone lefty will spend the next 2 months getting healthy agian.

New Orleans - to their credit - has hired a moving compnay to help him complete the move.

That's wild. And his movement rating shot up. Perhaps it is related to the fall.
