From this article, it appears that Thome might only miss the first few weeks of the season.Fortuntely, I paid a lot for him last year in my keeper league... I wasn't planning on holding him, anyway.Still, he's high on my list for 1B, notwithstanding this injury.
From what I recall last year, Eric Gagne wasn't on the list for reliever until a few days before the draft. For some reason, BBM doesn't list some of the star players on their initial draft lists.
