White Sox Star Eloy Jimenez RUPTURED his left pec (pectorals) muscle in yesterday’s preseason game against Oakland. Eloy will be out for 5-6 months and will require surgery. In this video I discuss his pec injury and review why this injury is rarely seen in the MLB.

The pec muscle is a large muscle that attaches to the clavicle and sternum and inserts on the humeral head. The main function of the muscle is bringing your arm across the chest and pushing your arms in front of your body. A pec rupture is quite a rare injury and is mainly seen only in men ages 20-40. Commonly it is seen after a heavy bench press.
The mechanism of injury includes increased tension along the pec muscle while it is eccentrically contracting. Think about doing a negative pull up, now imagine someone pulling your legs down while you try to control the decent. This is essentially what happened to Eloy’s pec. He was contracting his pec to stay over the barrier while also having to fight to hold his body up.
The athlete may hear a “pop”, or note a large amount of bruising over the area of the pec. An MRI is required to confirm the diagnosis. These tears generally require surgical management to ensure the athlete can retain their pre-injury strength and function.
While Eloy will be out for 5-6 months, the outcomes of surgery for this injury are quite good. He has a high likelihood of being able to return to his previous state. He will however, need to be mindful of excessive pec use that could potentially cause a re-rupture.
