So, our speculation was off and the injury was legitimate. That brings up another matter, however. I just heard that Hughes was injured every year in the minors, then he comes up to the majors, pulls a hamstring then sprains his ankle while rehabilitating, losing 4 months, and now has a mysteriously broken rib. Nobody, not even he, knows how it happened, but obviously it did from something about his physical makeup. This history of injuries makes me more nervous than watching him get shelled as a 21-year-old.
