Atlanta Braves Phil Gosselin Gets Bad News (DL)

The news is trickling out now:

Phil Gosselin will be placed on the disabled list. Specifics of his left thumb injury will be revealed later today. #Braves

Not what we wanted to hear… especially given Philip Gosselin‘s performance over the weekend in the stead of Alberto Callaspo and his anemic play.

Bowman went on to say that more information will be released about Gosselin’s left thumb later today, but he also echoed exactly what I was thinking:  this is the kind of news progressive that generally means he will be out for a while – not just the requisite 2 week minimum.
