From CBS sportsline:
Tate injures knee in OF collision: Padres OF prospects Donavan Tate and Everett Williams were injured Tuesday as they collided in the outfield during a game for Class A Fort Wayne. Padres director of player development Randy Smith wrote in an email to MLB.com that both players were "banged up a bit but there was no structural damage." Tate is likely headed to the DL with a sore knee, while Williams could miss 3-5 games with a sore right knee. "Both guys were playing really well," Smith wrote. "Unfortunate, but lucky it was not worse."

Williams is out for the season. Tate is expected (hopefully) to return around June 1.

Hard to believe that Williams won the glass-man battle in a collision with Tate.

Williams tore his ACL in the collison, required season-ending surgery. Just an unfortunate situation for the both of them. Tate should be able to still log 200 plus at bats.

We're snake bitten with Tate. I hope he eventually lives up to his hype. Damn, the Padres paid a healthy bonus to get nothing but injuries. |

He's still not all that far off in his development. Provided he does well the rest of the season, I think he'll be in Lake Elsinore next year. He's still only 20.

That's what I keep holding onto, "he's still only 20." I keep thinking of players like Rocco Baldelli who we're world class super star athletes in HS and couldn't stay healthy once they started playing pro baseball schedules. |
