[tag]Minnesota Twins[/tag] catcher, [tag]Joe Mauer[/tag], has a stress reaction in his in the fibula of his left leg. Huh? This malady could bench Mauer for as little as 2 weeks and as much as 6 weeks, depending on whether the injury remains a reaction and doesn’t turn into a stress fracture.

As great as Mauer is, I feel it’s now time to let someone else take the risk of drafting him. For those of you struggling with the top tier catcher decision, move Brian McCann above Mauer and maybe even Victor Martinez as well.

    No way you move anyone above of Mauer in the cacther rankings. The link below indicates that he will be ready for opening day. And even if he did miss two weeks I would still take him far ahead of the other guys.
