Ryan Knightly Suffers Injury: Update

UPDATE: Ryan Knightly is expected to come off the disabled list and play in Saturday's War of the Warriors doubleheader.

Ryan Knightly suffered a shoulder injury to his throwing arm while playing hockey and will miss at least the next three weeks of the baseball season.

This is a big loss for the Warriors as Ryan is an outstanding defensive first baseman. After an early season slump, Ryan's bat is now also coming around. His batting average is now .306 for the season. Ryan was ranked second on the 2009 Warriors team with a .443 average. He hit 7 doubles, 1 triple and 2 homers last season.

Hopefully, Ryan will be back with the Warriors soon. Ryan's injury will be reassessed on July 7th. In the meantime, Tyler Knight will be activated full-time for the Warriors.
