BPro 的專欄作家 Will Carroll 在 May.7 發表的文章，其中有對 Loewen 的傷勢提出些自己的看法。 http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=6197 How bad is a stress fracture in the pitching elbow? That's just one of the questions that Orioles fans are asking regarding their young star, Adam Loewen. This type of injury is very uncommon, and one source suggested that his lack of experience as a schoolboy might have contributed. As with any stress fracture, there's no one single cause, and given his clean motion and usage, I'm at a loss to explain any causation. The worst-case scenario would be a lack of healing that would necessitate surgical fixation, but if the fracture heals completely and cleanly, there should be no long-term effects. One of the best comps for this, believe it or not, is Mark Prior, who was able to return quickly from a similar fracture in his pitching elbow, though Prior's was a compression fracture caused by a batted ball. Loewen's essentially done for the season, but I don't think his future is significantly less bright. -- The One - My Blog (Indians, Baseball, Life, Travel) http://go-tribe-ycc.blogspot.com/ 部落格：歡迎瀏覽、提出良性批評與指教。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 211.74.75.28
