After the Atlanta Braves lost Chipper Jones to an ACL injury, they needed to make a move if they
hoped to stay in front of the streaking Philadelphia Phillies in the NL East. By trading with the
Chicago Cubs and acquiring Derrek Lee, the Braves did just that. If Lee stays healthy and continues
to swing the bat well, he could more than make up for the loss of Chipper Jones.
Emmanuel Frimpong whose Arsenal trajectory was just taking off suffered an ACL injury during
training that will keep him out for the next six to nine months. At the time Frimpong was in Dublin
training with the reserves to play friendlies against Man Utd's reserves and Shamrock Rovers.
Arsenal fans who had hopes that the highly rated holding midfielder would see first squad action
will be disappointed.
