The extent of Chris Young's facial injuries are now appearant:

"I have a headache, but given the circumstances, I probably feel as good as I could," Young said. "But there's a lot of pressure, a lot of swelling and a constant headache."

Padres trainer Todd Hutcheson said Young will be prevented from doing anything baseball related for at least two weeks.

"The fracture did go beyond the nasal bone and affected some other facial bones," Hutcheson said. "Because of that it's required a lot more extensive evaluation."

Hutcheson said the evaluation process will have to wait until the swelling subsides. But Padres manager Bud Black said that Young's return is "not going to be in two or three weeks. It's going to be much longer."

A CAT scan revealed a "small crack in the bones of the skull," Hutcheson said. "We're a little concerned about the movement of fluid."

Here's wishing Chris a speedy recovery. He is lucky, considering line drives to the face have ended careers for pitchers.
