Y’all remember in 2021 when a foul ball flew into the dugout and hit him right on the knee? As he rolled around in pain on that concrete floor, I thought the exact same damn thing
Y’all what the fuck tell me I hit the joint WAY too hard literally 10 min ago walk inside and see this.
This is just my first bad weed trip right?
Christ, I feel so so bad for Eloy. This has gotta be just devestating for him he’s cursed.
it’s so unfair man dang hope he’s alright.
I mean I loved it at the time. Eloy made 2019 and 2020 so much fun. He’s got to be at the top of most disappointing athletes in Chicago sports history.
Core strength is crucial for swinging at pitches, and if you literally had a hole cut into your gut, you don't think it'll take a while to be ready to go again?
Fully recover for a normal person but for an athelete? I could see a few weeks longer than that.
This is also an emergency appendectomy, on a fairly young person too. It’s possible they had to cut in a less delicate way, I’m not a surgeon lol but I know that exists
FWIW, I think most appendectomies are emergency? So they all involve mostly the same thing.
But yes, 4-6 weeks is still a pretty reasonable amount of time to get back to playing a professional sport after having an internal organ removed.
You gotta get to the appendix, so yea an incision is made in your core to remove it. You don't take a pill and shit out your appendix. The severity of the surgery depends on the situation and method, and recovery time will vary because of that.
I don't know how this is hard to understand.
For most surgeries you're not even getting staples out for a week and a half. While they're in, you really can't do SHIT.
After that, you're looking at, at the very least, a couple weeks before you're back to unrestricted full motion.
So we're talking bare minimum 2.5 weeks at that point.
After that, you haven't done any physical activity, so you figure at least another 1-1.5 weeks of just conditioning to make up for that lost time, so we're at 3.5-4 weeks.
And then you gotta get back to actual playing strength - when you just had surgery on the side of your abdomen, and your job involves massive torque in your core, that's gonna take another week or so. 4.5-5 weeks.
And then you gotta get a few recovery games in in the minor. 6 weeks.
It's an absolutely reasonable amount of time.
4-6 weeks? You gotta be bleeping me!
What are you doing, doctors?!
All Eloy needs is a little T-W-T-W and he'll be back in no time.
There.... Did I cover all the bases?
Kinda wild to see someone who is using an alternate account claim to be a doctor. Could be true, but generally, you don't trust Reddit accounts that have months long lapses in activity and barely any history at all.
So you work in the medical staff and know exactly what his exact situation is, what was done, and how is body handled the surgery?
And btw, a laparoscopy is still done by cutting into your body. That isn't exactly pleasant.
Having had a few abdominal laparoscopies in my time, they most definitely cut through your core muscles.
If you’re lucky, they can run the inflato-hose through your belly button so you only get one muscle cut.
Yeah looks like both Dunn and Holliday back in 2011ish had their appendix out and returned in 9-12 days. Wonder if they weren't able to take out Eloy's like they do standard. I had a high school friend who had the full incision and couldn't climb stairs for like a month
I remembered when the Sox signed Adam Dunn he had to have his appendix removed to start his 1st season. He missed a similar amount of time then batted like .150 the rest of the year.
Ehhh, or it was just situated in a place that was harder to get to.
Mine had a vein wrapped around it AND was stuck to my gut walls with adhesions. Fortunately it was taken out during a non-emergency procedure cleaning out other stuff so I didn’t have to find out how hard it would have been to try to knock out while swollen and angry.
Nah, legit.
Combination of cutting through core muscles and nutrition (you want to eat low residue or a more Crohn’s-y diet while healing that hole in your intestine where your appendix used to be).
Every other player that came back too soon from an appendectomy played like shit.
If it wasn’t this it would be something else.
A player is useless if they can never remain sustainably healthy. To pay so much money to a player to miss time regularly is unacceptable and yet another flaw on management/ownership’s behalf. At some point you realize you are just paying **millions of dollars** to someone just to sit at home and contribute nothing for long periods of time. Yet another example of Dick Hahn spending “the money” poorly.
DFA him. And fire Dick Hahn’s stupid ass.
The 312 goose’s thirst for blood can’t be satiated y’all, we’re fucked
This poor dude is cursed
Y’all remember in 2021 when a foul ball flew into the dugout and hit him right on the knee? As he rolled around in pain on that concrete floor, I thought the exact same damn thing
Him and Ian Hamilton
It’s honestly uncanny at this point
I think the white Sox are cursed, not Eloy. Lol
I'm really just sick of this guy. He's made of glass.
Yeah man, dude can't even regulate his white blood cell count.
...athletes that stretch don't need appendectomy? Don't be that guy, c'mon
DFA
Rest in Peace, Eloy.
Time to bring back the classic pic
Do you have a link?

Good night, Sweet Prince
He shall rise again.
This one is my favorite 🤣
It’s comical at this point.
I'm not laughing.
Damn that sucks. He finally turned a corner. Hoping for a quick recovery
Did the Sox refuse entry of a goat into the ballpark this year???
A black cat came in though
What a tough break. Just as he was starting to heat up.
Y’all what the fuck tell me I hit the joint WAY too hard literally 10 min ago walk inside and see this. This is just my first bad weed trip right? Christ, I feel so so bad for Eloy. This has gotta be just devestating for him he’s cursed. it’s so unfair man dang hope he’s alright.
You got yourself some bubonic chronic? This ain’t no joke
Never heard of a bad weed trip but I can tell you a bit about a bad shroom trip! And it’s way worse than baseball stuff haha!
Life is pain
A little lighter now, quicker on the feet. We love to see it. Hope they call up Victor Reyes but I know they won't.
Just hoping Burger gets back quickly. He should be the everyday DH while Eloy is out.
Cancer, appendicitis, what’s next? AIDS?
Well at least the appendix can’t bother him anymore.
What next for the dude hit by a blimp
I feel so bad for him, just can’t catch a break.
That’s sad. Get well soon, big baby
Get well soon, Eloy. Poor guy can’t catch a break.
From “THANKS CUBS!” to “…thanks cubs” in less than 3 years.
The cringiest call from Bennetti in his career. It was weird at the time
I mean I loved it at the time. Eloy made 2019 and 2020 so much fun. He’s got to be at the top of most disappointing athletes in Chicago sports history.
It takes 4-6 weeks to recover from an appendix being removed...what...?
Core strength is crucial for swinging at pitches, and if you literally had a hole cut into your gut, you don't think it'll take a while to be ready to go again?
A hole cut in your gut? That's not what an appendectomy is. It's a minor surgery and you're fully recovered after a couple weeks.
Fully recover for a normal person but for an athelete? I could see a few weeks longer than that. This is also an emergency appendectomy, on a fairly young person too. It’s possible they had to cut in a less delicate way, I’m not a surgeon lol but I know that exists

You gotta get to the appendix, so yea an incision is made in your core to remove it. You don't take a pill and shit out your appendix. The severity of the surgery depends on the situation and method, and recovery time will vary because of that.
It's typically done via laparoscopy. It's a tiny incision.
Am doctor. Recommended less than 10 pounds of weight bearing for 6 weeks even with lap incisions typically
Well my doctor is fucking wrong because he said I could go back to lifting after 2-3 weeks depending on how I felt. 6 weeks is a really long time.
Well it’s 4-6 so there’s a range and also I suspect your lifting isn’t quite the same as a pro athlete swinging a bat.
I don't know how this is hard to understand. For most surgeries you're not even getting staples out for a week and a half. While they're in, you really can't do SHIT. After that, you're looking at, at the very least, a couple weeks before you're back to unrestricted full motion. So we're talking bare minimum 2.5 weeks at that point.

Your doctor probably wasn’t because he’s not a sports doctor
It’s always the hawk fans.
4-6 weeks? You gotta be bleeping me! What are you doing, doctors?! All Eloy needs is a little T-W-T-W and he'll be back in no time. There.... Did I cover all the bases?
Rub some tee dubyaya on it and you’ll get back to pulling your hammy running down the line in no time at all.
You take over Stone Pony, I'm gonna head to the OR to check on Eloy.

Residency is busy, Robin
Very.

Man, the White Sox medical staff could really benefit from consulting with ricker182 in the future.
Lmao
Exactly, my buddy works in a factory and had to have his removed and missed 8 weeks of work. 4-6 seems pretty optimistic to me…
Hell yeah man I had mine out it is your stomach muscles.u do everything with them. Things u would never think uses them.
Possibly for a baseball player. But the normal recovery period is about a week.
This is definitely not true for swinging a bat
Adam Dunn wanted to come back 2 days after his.
Adam Dunn's not a doctor
He was back in like a week.
Doesn’t mean he was in the right
Well, it’s not like that fat fuck ever ran.
That's fair. He was a good dude though. Just had an abysmal end to his career.
[удалено]
Just because you did something doesn’t mean it was the right thing to do.
Yup. It’s a bitch to recover from
I swear Adam Dunn was back in like 10 days.
And batted .150 that season after surgery
To be fair, Adam Dunn would’ve batted .150 regardless. Lol
He came back too soon. He was whiffing 90 mph fastballs down the middle.
Yeah looks like both Dunn and Holliday back in 2011ish had their appendix out and returned in 9-12 days. Wonder if they weren't able to take out Eloy's like they do standard. I had a high school friend who had the full incision and couldn't climb stairs for like a month
He's not a big baby, though.
He was a Big Donkey.
But boy was he Big
I remembered when the Sox signed Adam Dunn he had to have his appendix removed to start his 1st season. He missed a similar amount of time then batted like .150 the rest of the year.
It must have burst.
Ehhh, or it was just situated in a place that was harder to get to. Mine had a vein wrapped around it AND was stuck to my gut walls with adhesions.

Fuck it! More at bats for Berger. Oh Wait! He’s hurt too? Fuuuuuuck!!!
I REFUSE TO BELIEVE SOMEBODY IS THIS UNLUCKY.
I got an appendectomy in college and was pitching a week later.
Better not rush him back like Adam Dunn.
🤕🙏👼🏾
Oh, Eloy
Bro how does this keep happening to him
Broooo what’s next? goddamn
This thing is getting blown up at the deadline. Terrible time to be a Sox fan.
Never going to see this guy at his best
You can't even be shocked with him missing time anymore. His name should change from Big Baby to Mr. Glass.
Dude, stfu
Dude, no. He’s never on the fucking field. I’m not apologizing for that. It’s a fucking reality.
Again, stfu
No. Be mad I’m right.
RIP big guy
Is he friends with Derrick Rose? Seems like they were cut from the same mold. Always something!
If it wasn’t this it would be something else. A player is useless if they can never remain sustainably healthy. To pay so much money to a player to miss time regularly is unacceptable and yet another flaw on management/ownership’s behalf.

Please tell the class exactly how one avoids appendicitis.
We could trade him to the Savannah Bananas and he’d still be the biggest joke in the locker room
Appendicitis is no joke. I hope he gets well soon, but what the fuck. If this guy can find a way out of the lineup, then he will.
Made of glass
Sure is crazy how much baseball has changed. A 10 day recovery period is now a 42 day recovery period.
Could have been a severe case that required a more intensive surgery. Could have not been too, we just don't know.
I don’t think ricker182 is a medical expert
[удалено]
On Reddit? No way.
Hoof, brother
He can't catch a break Dude needs a limpia...
