Latest on Morneau
Joe Christensen keeps us up to date on Justin Morneau's condition:
Twins first baseman Justin Morneau will remain in the hospital for a third straight night tonight, while being monitored for a bruised right lung.
General Manager Terry Ryan said tonight that Morneau had a second chest X-Ray taken today, and once again, it showed no broken bones. But the doctors are taking no chances after Morneau coughed up blood Friday. Ryan said Morneau probably would be released from the hospital Monday and cleared to fly home.
"They don't want to have any complications when he gets on an airplane," Ryan said. "They're thinking probably tomorrow. They didn't want him to go today. They wanted to make sure everything is in order so there's no possibility of complications."
I thought two days of recovery time sounded optimistic.
