Brett Gardner left today’s game with … a stomach bug

Via Mark Feinsand: Brett Gardner left today’s game after five innings due to a stomach bug according to Joe Girardi. Thankfully it’s nothing serious, but at this point I wouldn’t be surprised if the virus mutated into some kind of flesh eating disease that landed Gardner on the DL all season. It’s been that kind of Spring Training.

In other news, Cervelli lacerated himself in a freak pizza-cutting accident, Stewart will miss some games due to twisting his wrist in a freak door knob-turning accident and Romine will miss some games in a freak wii-playing accident.

When asked for comments, Cashman responded “Bobby Wilson has gone on the DL from a prolonged-case of a newly discovered disease of WobbyBilson-itis.

Something about playing the kids, the injuries being a sign, Cashman sucking, Hal should sell the team, bodies rolling in graves, pompous inner circles, and how it’s all A-Rod’s fault.

  What could have been:
  
  1B: Lard
  2B: Cano
  SS: Pastor Icky
  3B: Larusso
  
  Infield for the next quarter century flushed down the toilet.
  
  Cashman failed.

    That’s disappointing, how is this (or any of the last couple of fights) also not included in that montage? Screw just going along with the music.
