Did he have any shoulder problems before the Cintron incident? Is all this stemming from that original injury?

Alex freaking Cintron.
It's funny(in a sardonic way). That one idiotic bit of base-running by Alex Cintron probably cost us a chance at the WS that postseason, and may eventually end Rolen's once almost HOF-worthy career.

This came to me as I was watching the game tonight:

I bet, if there is something wrong with his elbow, they're going to let him continue to play until either:

a) he simply can't go anymore

or

b) he secures his .300/30/100 season.

I bet they don't want his streak to end because of some "soreness". Would it surprise any of you?
