What Kremcheck said though keeps me hopeful that Burrow should be 100% by the opener if it is indeed a grade 1 sprain.

This report from Dr. Kremcheck, whose an orthopedic surgeon and a Cincinnati Reds consultant, is indeed a hopeful prognosis. He seems to have inside information from the MRI that the calf strain is indeed a grade one and Burrow should be ready to go after three weeks. It's going to help me to put my attention on the training camp and preseason camp without this huge shadow over everything.
I get the impression from Streak 161's post that they would probably opt to keep Burrow out an extra two weeks to avoid the kind of recurrence that occurred when Mike Trout tried to come back too early.
