May 5, 201412 yr John Fay @johnfayman 11m Heard from a source that jay Bruce may need surgery. #reds Jay Bruce didn't start today due to a knee issue. This report by Fay does not sound good. He had no specifics, but if true, this is why you don't trade Heisey. Whether it is minor or major, if he has surgery, he will very likely be out a while.
May 5, 201412 yr Author Jerry Crasnick @jcrasnick 5m Jay Bruce will have surgery this week to repair partially torn meniscus in left knee. Expected to miss 3-4 weeks. #reds This was tweeted by Crasnick.
May 5, 201412 yr Author I doubt we see him before September. I believe you may be correct. The Reds hardly ever reveal the true timeline.
May 5, 201412 yr I'll believe 3-4 weeks when I see it. I know he wasn't exactly tearing the cover off the ball but this is a bad time for a major bat to go down. It's going to be a long summer.
May 5, 201412 yr Rotation of the 2 more than likely, Heisey doesn't do well as an every day guy for extended periods and Schumaker is just coming of the DL isn't he.

Second, who could possibly predict that Bruce would be out an extended period of time?
May 5, 201412 yr Rotation of the 2 more than likely, Heisey doesn't do well as an every day guy for extended periods and Schumaker is just coming of the DL isn't he. Correct on both. I think you have to have Schumaker in there every day. Heisey in the same role he's always been.
May 5, 201412 yr Correct on both. I think you have to have Schumaker in there every day. Heisey in the same role he's always been. Don't forget Hamilton and Ludwig can not play every day either as it seems. Outfield by committee, it will either work or epic fail.
May 5, 201412 yr Don't forget Hamilton and Ludwig can not play every day either as it seems. Outfield by committee, it will either work or epic fail. Well, Hamilton may be an aberration, I hope.
May 5, 201412 yr So, who do they fill the roster spot with (not necessarily the starting spot? Do/can they bring back Bernadina? Or do they go to the minors (Lutz?)
May 5, 201412 yr So much for me hoping Skip would be able to replace BP in the lineup soon and he be shipped out to parts unknown.
May 5, 201412 yr Author First, who said to trade Heisey? Second, who could possibly predict that Bruce would be out an extended period of time? No one on here, but I have heard several on talk radio say to trade him while they could get value. I never said teh reds seriously thought that. Just an assumption on the length of time, we'll see.
