AP: Derek Jeter leaves New York Yankees game with strained left quadriceps

Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter left Monday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays with a strained left quadriceps.

ESPN is now reporting it’s a groin injury, FWIW.

This is quite shocking. Bartolo Colon actually has a side now?

It doesn't say whether Colon strained his fore rib, or his chuck.

"A groin injury! A g-g-groin, a g-g-groin, a g-g-groin injury!"

See, when I heard about the Colon thing, my first thought was "hull breach".

I wonder if New York is considering Rodriguez as a temporary shortstop if Jeter stays unhealthy. It looks like 2005 was the last time he was there for a regular season game.

At least it was a clutch strain...

thats right, I remember a game he played in 2005, in a game against the Twins I think, in the metrodome.
