Craig Italiano
Last night former first round pick Craig Italiano was hit in the head by a line drive and had to leave the game for low A Kane County. He was taken to the hospital as a precaution and they found a crack in his skull. Looks like he's out for the season. He missed almost all of last season for labrum surgery and was really struggling this season. He actually was pitching well last night too, 2.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 5 K.
Obviously I hope everything turns out ok for him and baseball takes backseat here.

ugh
Yikes.
That kid has been damn unlucky thus far in his pro career.
Helmets for pitchers? Let the debate begin.
If only he had Canseco's skull...
or conversely, if only Canseco had Italiano's pitching skills.
Then, we might be onto something!
so, anyone going to use "crack" and 'head"
in the same sentence and be the smartass that catches the wrath from everyone?
i know i'm not.
Why would a skull fracture keep you out
for the season?
The A's
Are having the most ridiculous run of injuries ever. I'm convinced that we are cursed.
I hope Italiano is OK, this is terrible
