From Gretzky.com Blog:
Canadian baseball hero, Justin Morneau and wife, Krista made a surprise visit to Wayne’s winery located in Vineland, Ontario this week.

Loose tooth
Posted by JustinMorneau.com in Stories and Features
From La Velle E. Neal’s Blog:
I e-mailed Justin Morneau last week after one of my spotters spotted him in the Wild clubhouse with his hand wrapped up. I wanted to know how his surgery went.
He got back to me over the weekend and didn’t seem too worried:
“Hand is feeling better,” he wrote. “Get the cast off this week and it should be good as new in about 4 weeks. They found a floating chunk of bone that kind of looked like a tooth but no tendon or ligament damage. Went as good as it could go.”
Morneau’s hand should be healed from surgery by the end of the year - as should the stress fracture in his lower back that ended his season in September.
I remember talking with Michael Cuddyer during last offseason when he was coming off a 2008 that included so many injures. “I’ve never been more motivated to have good season,” he said then. Cuddyer went on to have a nice comeback year.
The guess here is that Morneau will feel the same way once he gets the go-ahead to resume workouts.
