Another week, another slew of injuries. Just bad luck, or something more?
Makakilo: Hamstring injuries account for 3 of the 5 non-pitchers on the Diamondback IL. As a fan with no medical training my comments are not intended as medical advice - they are intended to illustrate the ambiguity and complexity of injury prevention.
