Mike Adams Likely Done For The Season

Hi everybody,

Phillies relief pitcher Mike Adams is likely done for the season with three tears in his shoulder.  The injury was discovered yesterday after Adams visited with doctors.  It is not known if Adams will require surgery or just rehab but either way it is highly unlikely that he will return this season.  Get well, Mike...looking forward to hopefully seeing you healthy next season!

Mike Adams Placed on the DL

Hi everybody,

Relief pitcher and 8th inning set-up man Mike Adams has been put on the 15-day DL (Disabled List) with a strained back.  The move was retroactive to May 11th, the day after the last day that Adams pitched.  That means that Adams can return to the roster on Sunday (May 26th).  If all goes well, the Phils plan to activate him on Monday (May 27th) before the series against the Boston Red Sox.  Let's hope that Adams will be back in action by then because with the exception of Jonathan Papelbon and Justin De Fratus the bullpen has been horrid ever since Adams went down.
