Diagnosis: Ulner
Josh Johnson is out until June:
Florida Marlins right-hander Josh Johnson finally has a diagnosis for his sore arm - an irritated ulnar nerve that will likely force him to miss at least the first two months of the season.
Johnson was relieved to learn the injury wasn't worse.
"If it was real bad, I'd probably be out for four months," he said Tuesday. "It's good to know exactly what it is."
It's not great news, but it's better than structural damage. Given the injuries the Marlins staff is acquiring, any missed time is going to cost the team.
Baseball Musings is holding a pledge drive in March.
