"The Twins put right-hander Boof Bonser and catcher Joe Mauer on the DL on Thursday. Bonser had shoulder surgery and is expected to miss the season. Mauer is recovering from inflammation in his lower back, which will keep him out for at least the next few weeks (Sportsline)."
For all you people who drafted Joe Mauer I am sorry, but you should have seen this coming. Mauer hasn't played at all this spring after issues with his back, and now will be out for at least a couple of weeks. Then you would think he is going to need some time in the minors to get his swing back. Mauer is the best catcher in the AL, but his time at the top may be short if he can't stay on the field. For the Twins sake I hope he is back soon, because this team seems to be hurting as Scott Baker is also going to miss at least a week (at least 2 starts) because of shoulder stiffness.
Oh yea and what the hell were Boof Bonser's parents thinking naming him that??
