Harper Can't Stay Healthy

The Nats' Bryce Harper has just come back from an injury to his toe and now this.

Bryce Harper hit the scoreboard wall face-first while tracking a ball hit by A.J. Ellis in the outfield over his left shoulder. He never looked at the wall and when he finally turned, he was on top of it. The impact sent Harper's cap flying as he bounced off the wall and crumpled to the ground, with Ellis getting a triple.

Harper didn't come back to the game as the Nats' won by a score of 6-2 over the Dodgers. 

"As the ball kept going, I was like, 'Is he going to stop?'" Nationals center fielder Denard Span said. "He looked like he didn't get a good jump at all, like he was surprised the ball was hit to him. I thought he was going to jump and brace himself. As soon as he ran into it, his body locked up."

Harper laid on his back for minutes which seemed like hours due to the wonder of pain he was in. 

Dodgers Lose Another Pitcher

The Los Angeles Dodgers have list one of their best starting pitchers for the whole season due to Tommy John Surgery. The pitcher is Chad Billingsley and he won't just ruin this season, but it will take up a large chunk of his 2014 season.

Billingsley had an option, either undergo elbow surgery in September, but opted out for rehabilitation and received an injection of platelet-rich plasma. Billingsley was on the disabled list for elbow inflammation three times in the past year.

The elbow hadn't hurt all spring training and through his first three starts this year, but by his most recent game the pain came back. He had an MRI and it proved that Chad Billingsley had a torn ligament.

The Dodgers started their season off with eight solid veteran starting pitchers, but are now missing half of them due to injuries to Billingsley, Zack Greinke and Chris Capuano, and Aaron Harang being traded. This will be a tough season!

Greinke out With Collarbone Injury

Carlos Quentin a two year in a row and counting champion for getting hit with a pitch. He has been hit 43 times in the past 2 years and 3 times by Zach Greinke, but when the third one came around yesterday Quenton got mad. He charges the mound and wrestled Greinke to the ground.

Greinke had been found to have a broken collarbone after the 3-2 pitch to Quentin came across the plate to Quentin's shoulder.

I never hit him on purpose," said Greinke, who had his left arm in a sling and appeared shaken after the game. "I never thought about hitting him on purpose. He always seems to think that I'm hitting him on purpose, but that's not the case. That's all I can really say about it."

The coach of the Dodgers, Don Mattingly, said in one word what Quentin's actions were, and he said what he did was stupid and you honestly can't argue with that. I have one question for my readers, what would you have done in Quentin's shoes?
