As he skidded off the road, Carmona pulled his pitching arm close to his chest, in an effort to protect it. Instead, his right arm hit the steering wheel, breaking the radius and ulna bones in the forearm. The injury required sur- geons to place two plates and 15 pins in Carmona's arm. He has 7-inch scars on each side of his forearm. Carmona, who is expected to contend for a spot in the Mariners' bullpen this spring, hopes to be playing again by July 1.
