Tampa Bay Rays catcher Dioner Navarro was sidelined last month due to a stiff neck caused by...whiplash. Navarro had dropped his family off at the airport on June 9th and was trying to find them after parking his car. When he stepped off an elevator he looked right, then left, and felt a pop in his neck.
"When I looked to the left, my neck popped," Navarro said. "And it's been like that for four days. It's unbelievable. I'm a magnet for the freak stuff."
It's true, Navarro has had his share of bad luck. He was hit in the throat by a ball in 2007 and slashed his hand open on mesh netting when he slipped on dugout steps in 2008.
Navarro, who's struggling mightily this year, appears to be one of the unfortunate souls who is truly cursed. He's the type of person who would trip and fall over a black cat and break a mirror while trying to maneuever something under a ladder.
He's the type of person cartoons are made about, eh Wile E?
haha poor guy! i feel his pain, i may not get injuries that severe but i feel like i'm always prone to some stupid accident that ends in me getting hurt.
