Rehab feels like a risky option unless this is very very minor. Even so, I doubt he pitches before the last week of the regular season, even if the rehab goes smoothly.
Why can’t we have nice things???
Let’s hope for the best
RIP in peace Josh Hader 😢
Thank god we have an 8th inning guy who is better than many closers even though he can drive us nuts with the traffic he gets on base. We need you Abreu!
Yeah that shit off the bone 100%
6 weeks of season left and almost certainly it will be longer than 3 weeks before he starts throwing again, and even after that he’ll need time to ramp up to game condition.
This feels like a certain “done for the year” injury but I’d be curious if anyone knows more historically about these injuries and the recovery times.
So is this better or worse than we thought? Serious non-sarcastic answers here please.
“After that, the next steps will be determined.” Translation… “We will be announcing season ending surgery in 3-4 weeks.”
Knew it would be a capsule sprain, same thing Brantley had. See you next season Hader😢

*Josh Hader being treated by Astros Med Staff*
Best case scenario is he rehabs before playoffs. We’re not seeing in another regular season game
Gone for season. Most recent case was Senga with a mild strain and he missed three months. It’s mid August. Hader won’t be back this year.
So is this good news?
They’re selecting his casket, as we speak.
Get that man some shockwave therapy!

How is our training staff employed? I hope they are all fired this offseason.
Pretty much whole season
This is definitely better than season. We’ll see.
chill we have an abreu
When’s the funeral?
It seems it’s not gonna be any surgery. Which should be good news.
