Philadelphia Phillies ace Cole Hamels, who I just traded for in my Fantasy Pros 911 Writers League (this was literally his first start on my roster) has sprained his ankle. So yeah. Thanks for that.The lefty exited Tuesday night's game against the horrible Washington Nationals in the fifth inning after he appeared to have snagged his metal cleat while trying to field a John Lannan bunt.
This marks the second straight start in which the reigning World Series MVP left early, after a Prince Fielder line drive nailed his pitching shoulder during last Thursday's outing against the Milwaukee Brewers in the fourth inning.
Hamels, still winless on the season, left with a 5-0 lead after allowing four hits and striking out four in 4 1-3 innings. We'll keep you posted.

He is on my fantasy team too, I feel your pain.
The Phils just signed him to $20M, to teach the philly fans how to navigate the Web MD site, trying to figure out what pains him every week!
what an endorsement deal he's getting!
Did you see the way he flipped the ball to Charlie Manuel in disgust when he left the game and Manuel had to pick it up off the ground as Hamels walked away? Don't ever show up your manager like that. Show some respect. Not everything is about you.
I think he might have gotten injured because he is on my fantasy team. I've already gone through 2 third basemen this year due to injury. I'm now contemplating removing anyone who plays for the twins from my roster.
