 Brandon Inge Of The Tigers Injures Himself Lifting A Pillow
Brandon Inge has kind of been sucking something fierce this year for the Tigers. He's hitting a whopping .215 and is only being used as a utility man. This is of course after he had an offseason fit about Miguel Cabrera getting traded to Detroit to steal his primary position. So maybe, just maybe, he's gotten fed up and has decided to pack it in. Inge has been placed on the disabled ... [link]

Brandon Inge Hits the Disabled List in a Pillow-Lifting Related Incident
Published 6/26/2008 by Will Brinson at FanHouse
Filed under: Detroit, Tigers, AL Central, MLB Injuries In fairness, Brandon Inge is not blaming his inability to properly lift a pillow for the entire extent of the injury that has him headed to the disabled list. The injury has been bugging him for a while, and this just put it over the top. Because, lifting pillows can be a pretty dangerous activity. Inge said he aggravated the injury moving a pillow for his three-year-old Monday night. He said if not for that mishap, he probably would have tried to continue to play with the injury, which he said has bothered him since he suffered it on June 1 in Seattle. Told ...

AS IF YOU NEEDED MORE PROOF THAT INGE IS SOFT
Published 6/26/2008 by World of Isaac (noreply@blogger.com) at The World of Isaac
I don't even know where to start with this story. But apparently, Brandon Inge hurt himself moving his kids pillow I've repeatedly ripped on Brandon here at WOI, so I will let somebody else go ahead and speak for me here. An excerpt from the fellas over at FanIQ: Apparently Inge already had a sore oblique muscle, and the vicious pillow sent it over the edge. Now see here's my question. Even if this story is true, why would you ever admit it? It's one of the stupidest injuries I've ever heard of. Just say you got into a bar fight with a homeless, knife-wielding lunatic. I would have ...
