According to the Braves, Charlie Morton suffered a right fibula fracture. That's horrible

WHOA!  Morton broken leg
GoBarves

But can we also respect him for pitching on a broken fibula? I broke mine skiing one year and it was quite painful
Wow, that's awful

Can the Braves replace Morton on the roster?
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:18
Yes
But they have to get permission from the league which will obviously be given

And he can't play in the series after the World Series, which is fine since he's out until the spring regardless and the Galaxy Series hasn't started up yet.

There's no replacing Morton (aside from literally)

Is this the end of the line for Chuck?
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:19
Nah
Hey, he got the side out WITH the broken leg, so it follows he'd be even better with it healed!

Oh, God, Smyly's barrel rate or Touki's walk rate

Smoltz: the manager isn’t going to choose Morton’s replacement. The GM will. Idiot.

That’s such a bummer, Morton rules

Yeah, one of my favorite pitchers. Such a gamer.

only thing more impressive than ohtani was canseco going 40/40, blowing his arm out in a pitching appearance, and knocking a ball over the fence with his head. but that wasn't all in the same season

I was at the game Canseco pitched — it was at Fenway — and I left an inning before he came in, as the score was 12-1. Yes, I regret having done so.

then Smiley.

Morton seems like one of the more underrated players in the game.  He's been fun to watch.

Wasn't Caneseco's greatest gift was blowing the lid off PED's?

And being a Twitter favorite!
Jose Canseco is a Chaos Polymath

Canseco's greatest gift was being one of the most fun players in baseball for years

Canseco totally pwned me on Twitter some years ago.
