“shoulder stiffness” sounds like the same stuff jason smidt had before the boom.

Concerns from multiple insurance companies last season prompted the D-Backs to remove their three-year, $54 million contract extension offer to Webb (shoulder) from the table, FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal reports. Webb has spent one stint on the 15-day DL in his career (2003, elbow tendinitis), but he’s logged the most innings in the big leagues over the last four seasons. Durability hasn’t been a concern for him and one of Rosenthal’s sources even predicted that Webb could pitch 10 more years without serious incident. As it stands now, we’ll have to await the results of any potential medical tests to determine the true extent of his problem, while the D-Backs haven’t made any decisions about his status beyond their decision to scratch him from his scheduled start on Saturday.

we just faced the dumb Padres and in game 2 Casey Stupid Blake couldn’t make a play at 3rd to prevent a double (Beltre woulda had that) and in game 4 Cory Wade imploded in the 8th and then Russell Marten GROUNDED INTO A GAME ENDING DOUBLE PLAY. With such awesome and timely defense and hitting as that it doesn’t matter who pitches for Arizona.
