Yep, the injury bug now has bitten one of the Braves' youngsters.
According to some reports on the Web this afternoon, Jair Jurrjens injured his ankle while leaving Wrigley Field last night and will not make his scheduled start tonight against the Cubs.
Jeff Bennett will toe the slab for the Braves, making his first start since April 23. Bennett has made three starts this season: against Pittsburgh on April 3 (the Mike Hampton warming-up, then straining his pec game), against Los Angeles on April 18 and at Florida April 23.
What else can happen to this team? In a span of one day, John Smoltz underwent season-ending shoulder surgery, Tom Glavine landed on the disabled list with a strained elbow, and Jurrjens hurt his ankle.
Wow.
