CF Reed breaks thumb, might be headed to DL
http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slu...v=ap&type=lgnsSEATTLE (AP) -- Mariners center fielder Jeremy Reed broke his right thumb in the 11th inning of Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Colorado Rockies.
With two outs in the top of the 11th, Reed made a diving attempt at Brad Hawpe's sinking line drive. Both Reed and right fielder Ichiro Suzuki made aggressive initial moves toward the liner, but there appeared to be a miscommunication over who would take the ball.
Reed landed awkwardly and left the game. Willie Bloomquist took over in center. Reed is scheduled to see a hand specialist in Seattle on Monday.
"Jeremy, yeah, I'm concerned," Seattle manager Mike Hargrove said.
Ugh. Oh well, personally I will only miss his occasional defensive plays. He's hitless against lefties this year. I've heard he could be out for as many as 4-6 weeks so I guess we will see a lot more of Bloomquist and maybe Adam Jones
