Injuries
Achilles - 15-day DL. Could return by end of June (Updated - 5/19/12)
News
Philadelphia general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. on Sunday disputed a report that stated the decision to give first baseman Ryan Howard a cortisone shot might have contributed to the torn Achilles tendon he suffered at the end of last season, The Sports Xchange reports. A report in the Philadelphia Inquirer on Sunday raised the possibility that the cortisone shot Howard received in his left heel last September might have weakened the Achilles in that leg, which Howard tore while making the last out of the NLDS against St. Louis. "We didn't feel like there was any issue," he said. "We were very comfortable moving forward. ... We don't feel one thing had anything to do with the other."
