He'll miss 3 weeks to a month, Adam Stern will man CF until he comes back.

Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: Spider-Dan on April 10, 2006, 10:03:42 am What's the "rules" on sliding headfirst vs. feetfirst?
Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: MaineDolFan on April 10, 2006, 10:21:25 am Stealing - it's almost always a head first slide...but some teams won't allow it. Example, Houston: you slide headfirst in any situation is an automatic 5 game suspension without pay.
Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: MaineDolFan on April 10, 2006, 03:55:41 pm Crisp will be out for at least 10 days. Official statement from team doctor, Thomas Gill:
"Once sufficient healing has occurred, Coco can begin batting and return to baseball activities," Gill said in a statement. "Rough time table for this injury is 10 days."

Hopefully he'll come back soon. Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: Spider-Dan on April 11, 2006, 07:48:04 am Is it usually a headfirst slide when stealing so as to prevent defenders from being "taken out" during a steal?

Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: Sunstroke on April 11, 2006, 11:31:38 am I have Coco on roughly half of my fantasy baseball rosters...I hope he comes back REAL quick! ;D Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: ADeadSmitty on April 11, 2006, 01:23:44 pm Is it usually a headfirst slide when stealing so as to prevent defenders from being "taken out" during a steal? Why wouldn't the sliding player want the defender to be taken out? Title: Re: Official statement on Coco Crisp Post by: Spider-Dan on April 11, 2006, 08:57:43 pm I thought there might be some archaic baseball code of honor where it's OK to take a defender out on a double play ball but not on a steal.
