1 0 All Reedster^115 Joe Mauer tears ligament in knee 4/7/04, 5:39pm Sounds like out for the season language to me... but, interestingly enough, this ESPN article sets a possible time table at three weeks. I STRETCHED a ligament in my knee playing football in high school. I wasn't back in three weeks. Not even close. [Reedster from Sylmar/CA] Replies:
