With the Royals firing on all cylinders here are a few injury updates
Lyman Bostock (KC) out 4 months
Joe Morgan (HOU) 4-5 weeks
Jim Lonborg (BOS) 13 months, he has picked up 58 wins over the last 3 years
Rick Honeycutt (SEA) out 8 months
Gary Lavelle (SF) to miss 7 months
Rick Monday i headed to Toronto in exchange for Clay Carroll, who is on his way to Baltimore
Meanwhile the Royals are hitting with a vengeance, and flat shutting people down on the mound. This has them off to a torrid 14-3 start in their early attempts to get back to the postseason. Their signings of Schmidt and Reuschel were a sort of throwing down of the gauntlet to the 'halos of LA. While the Bostock injury will serve as a setback, the overall depth of the roster and the return of Al Cowens from the DL should make it fairly manageable.
