I want to thank everyone that has sent me good luck wishes for quick healing of my hand over the past couple of days. In a few hours I will be heading over to the hospital to receive surgery to repair my broken hamate bone in my left hand. From what I hear, the recovery time for a surgery like this is six to eight weeks, but I am hoping I can recover quicker and get back out on the field shortly.
Showing genuine concern for Matt, I did a little research to learn more about the hamate bone or as I sometimes call it the unciform bone.
It is also a common injury in baseball players. A number of professional baseball players have had the bone removed during the course of their careers
I asked Antonelli via twitter if he too was having the hamate bone removed. He said the surgeons would remove the broken piece. I called dibs on the bone piece... sometimes I even weird myself out.

If I'm not mistaken
This is the same thing Everth Cabrera went through last year.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

"showing genuine concern for matt"
I like how you explain to us that your actions “show genuine concern for matt”
lol
I think the reason Matt is so damn unlucky
Is cuz he’s a Boston lover

Well for one I'm not a huge Yankees fan
and for two, he’s a Padres fan, not a Red Sox fan.

Actually I lied
I have a Scott and BR special edition Calloway hat. But I’ve never worn it cuz I hate non-fitted hats.

Is that a reference to his hand injury
And how he can’t be pulling himself?
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

I was just asking a question.
I was just trying to make sure it wasn’t dirty.
