Though an X-ray on Rickie Weeks' ankle came back negative, Brewers owner Mark Attanasio said there is concern that the second baseman might have a ligament sprain.
Uh oh. It's possible ligament damage could be as bad or even worse than a fracture would have been. But, it's just speculation at this point, so we'll wait until Weeks undergoes a battery of tests at a Milwaukee hospital. Obviously, it would be an enormous blow to the Brewers' playoff hopes if Weeks is sidelined for a significant amount of time.
