Injury Report

By: Dave Martinez | February 10th, 2009

Here is an e-mail I received yesterday. The source will remain anonymous:

Dave, great job on the blog, but no on is saying anything about the health updates of several players. Sassano? Palacio? Care to shed some light?

Though I am not the teams trainer, and am definitely not in Florida, I will try my best:

- Michael Palacio is trying to fight for a spot with the forwards. But first, he has to recover from that surgically repaired knee. Now, reports were that coming into camp, Palacio felt near 100%, but had a set back, and is taking it easy on the knee this week. He is expected to be competing further next week.

- Another forward with knee issues is Oscar Echeverry, who was and still is rehabbing.

- And the knee virus has also hindered Terry Boss, who is rehabbing as well.

- Luke Sassano was playing hurt throughout the playoffs last year from a high ankle sprain to (if memory serves) his right knee. He is going through light training.

- If you recall, the team took a huge hit during the playoffs as well when the Kiwi half of the Boyens/Jimenez combo fell injured. Well, Andrew Boyens has taken the offseason to let his left forearm heal, and it seems RB medical still isn’t happy with the progress. Though Boyens will be taking part in drills and such, he is still about 2-3 weeks away from contact play.

- Seth Stammler was spotted in Florida, and is back with the team doing some light training.

Does that help? Did I miss anyone?

Ill be around later guys and gals. Have a great day.

    Well nows the time to rest up and recover. Im a little annoyed that Echeverry is still busted up. Perhaps the word bust is the right one for him
