MSNBC - Reds' Griffey Jr. out for season

Surprise, surprise. Griffey's injured ... again.

Junior had a reputation, while with the Mariners in Seattle, of having an absolutely terrible work-out ethic. He has the most natural swing I've ever seen, but the Kid does nothing to keep himself in shape, making him a bit of a clutz. Not stretching properly or keeping yourself in shape is going to cause injuries. Here's a hint ... the trainers make you do it for a REASON.

Griffey puts all of himself into Baseball, because he clearly loves the game. But he's putting a little too much of himself into Baseball, which he wouldn't have to do if he's spend some time stretching and doing some calisthenics once in a while.
