Here’s a running list of injury updates around the Major Leagues:

– According to Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News, Giants GM, Brian Sabean, is worried about second baseman Freddy Sanchez and his shoulder surgery. “For me, personally, it doesn’t look good,” he said. It looks like Sanchez could be out for the reminder of the 2011 season. That would be a tough blow for the reigning champions, who acquired Jeff Keppinger and Orlando Cabrera’s services during July to try and fill in for Sanchez.

– It appears that right handed pitcher Clay Buchholz will be out for the rest of the 2011 regular season with a stress fracture in his lower back according to Sean McAdam of CSNNE.com. Buchholz has been out for six weeks, but could be ready to rejoin the team in the post season. Buchholz is scheduled to see back specialist Dr. Thomas Watkins in Los Angeles Monday, but will probably only confirm what he has already been diagnosed with says McAdam.
