He brought this up on Bickleys show awhile back. I'm sure Cards staff put the hush on that for obvious reasons.

Looks kind of stiff. This has to be affecting his catching ability, especially short range fast balls from Sammy. I wonder if he'll scrap it after what happened last week.

Hm... I have it on the authority of LOTS of online orthopedists that the wrist injury was NOTHING to worry about.

Who's tallking about the wrist injury? I'm talking about the wrist brace affecting his ability to catch. Look at how far up in the hand it sits in the last pic.

You don't put a brace on a healthy wrist. :shrug:

Well they have something on his left wrist. Look at the top pic where he's holding the ball. He can barely bend his wrist. Compared to his right hand next pic.

If you can't bend your wrist, it affects your ability to catch. It doesn't mean you can't catch at all. But a fastball over the middle... I'm guessing he removes it for next game after dropping two passes Sunday.
