"Casey Janssen's season is over before it begins.
The Blue Jays relief pitcher has a torn labrum in his right shoulder and will be out for the entire 2008 season. "
This is the worst possible injury for a pitcher. Very low recovery rate. Most players never reach the same pitching level as before the injury. Many don't even make it back to the majors.

Anyone remember Mike Sirotka?

Here are a couple of articles about the injury taken from the thread on Bluejayway.ca
