Vlad's shoulder separated?

An anonymous commenter says that's what's being reported on Baseball Tonight. I didn't see it, and there's no confirmation online as of yet, so it's just hearsay at this point.

UPDATE: No mention of what, if anything, is wrong with Washburn. He left after seven, but he did take the mound for the eighth before being lifted.

Comments:


Wash was on the radio with Terry Smith after the game and said that he had a little stiffness in his elbow, but nothing of any importance and that he shouldn't miss a start. My figuring is that he had already thrown a bunch of pitches, it was the 8th inning, so there was no need to keep him in there.

As for Vlad, the report through the end of the game -- and into the post-game report -- was that his shoulder popped out and they popped it back in, but apparently, there was no serious damage (i.e. a fracture). They said more tests would be done tomorrow.

Hmmm... I wonder why Vin Scully wasn't clued in? Thanks for the info.
