Canó gets friendly with Kendrys...

Friday Fathomings

After a week of spring training, there have already been two bizarre baseball injuries.

Watch out for that towel!

The pantheon of weird baseball injuries is long and storied.  Last year, Ubaldo Jimenez landed on the DL because he broke a nail.  Mat Latos strained his "left side" while trying to stifle a sneeze.  Kendry Morales broke his leg jumping onto home plate after hitting a walkoff grand slam.  Russell Branyan's toe was mugged by a hotel room table.  Former Cubs first round pick Mark Pawelek hurt his elbow when he was blindsided by a Playstation.  Former current Cub Kerry Wood injured his "right side" when he was violently ejected from a hot tub.  Joel Zumaya hurt his throwing arm while playing the video game Guitar Hero.  Clint Barmes broke his collarbone trying to carry a package of deer meat.  Former Cub Carlos Zambrano hurt his elbow after ahem spending too much time on the internet.  Former Cub Sammy Sosa went anti-Latos and sneezed so hard that he suffered back spasms.  The list goes on and on and on and on.  Now, the odd injury hall of fame has two new inductees...
