Blum to DL

Right up there with J.R. Towles cutting his hand on the ceiling fan, or Mike Hampton losing a fight with the soap dispenser at Wrigley Field, Geoff Blum can join the ranks of odd injuries, after heading to the DL because his shirt got up and bit him.

Blum has a bone chip in his elbow, and surgery will be determined following an exam performed in Houston tomorrow, though Wade thinks surgery is likely.

Blum:
"With the bone chip being in the joint, it's going to be extremely tough not to go in and take them out. Having been through this before, I was kind of ready for it, but it just kind of sucks that it has to happen."

Bourgeois, as promised, has rejoined the team.
