Damon Sublett had surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb, and he’s going to be out for a long time. Maybe all season. Sucks. Meanwhile, my friend Andy in Sunny Daytona tells me that Andrew Brackman is due back from the disabled list any day now. Apparently he just had a cut on his pitching hand that needed to heal. No biggie.
