Puckett Update

According to this AP report, Kirby Puckett is in crtical condition. However, this does not come from a medical official:

A nursing supervisor at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix, who declined to give her full name, said early Monday the 44-year-old Puckett was in critical condition. She did not provide additional details.

So our best guess is that Kirby's in bad shape, but we don't know how bad. You can be critical and still have good odds for recovery. Let's hope that's the scenario Puckett is facing.

I'm not sure if I understand completely what this means, but it sounds very, very bad. From a reliable regular poster at Spring Training on a Twins message board:
"Things were very subdued at the park this morning. It's a sad day for everyone. The word on Kirby is dire, and should all come to an end today, as two of his sisters are on their way to be at his side.
The news spread throughout the players and coaches, and it showed as there wasn't any noise on the fields today."
