Hmmm, this sounds worse than "a bit of a groin":

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Royals OF Alex Gordon has been placed on the 10-day DL with a left hip labral tear. OF Abraham Almonte has been recalled from Omaha.</p>&mdash; Maria Torres (@maria_torres3) <a href="https://twitter.com/maria_torres3/status/983804643124961283?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 10, 2018</a></blockquote>

Quote:
A hip labral tear “involves the ring of cartilage (labrum) that follows the outside rim of the socket of your hip joint”, according to the Mayo Clinic. Gordon had surgery on his labrum back in 2009 that caused him to miss three months. Devin Mesoraco missed most of the 2015 season with a labrum injury in his hip that he never had surgery on, and Troy Tulowitzki missed the final six weeks of the 2014 season with a similar injury. The Royals have not yet given an indication of how serious Gordon’s injury is or a timeline of when he hopes to return.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more injuries like that with the cold weather.

Does this suddenly make the Royals contenders?

Ned doesn't seem too concerned:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Gordon has a left hip labral tear. Ned Yost says it could be 10 days to two weeks. They’ll re-evaluate in five days or so.

of course he isn't... Gordon is an almost automatic out.

If this has been a chronic problem, suddenly a lot more makes sense. Chronic hip issues are debilitating, especially in sports that require sudden ranges of movement like swinging a bat.

He's just happy to not have to bat a pitcher playing in the outfield every night.

Hip and wrist injuries makes a lot of sense with his batting struggles.

Retire Alex. You’re done.

Just shut him down the rest of the year. Let his body heal fully, and then see what he has next spring. If he's truly done, bite the bullet and DFA him. He'll be in the Royals' HoF one day, there's no shame in walking away from him if his body is toast or if he has completely lost his bat.

This team is in purgatory.

That's the Chiefs.

Royals are in a down cycle. Already liking what I'm seeing from the farm - if they're competing again by 2021, I really have no complaints at all.
