You ever wonder why you shouldn't just snap off curve balls to your buddies at a barbecue? Well, Gavin Floyd does it for a living, last year he had Tommy John surgery, and tonight this happened. That's from a major leaguer on a professional throwing program.

Yeah, he did not continue the game.

Update:

Gavin Floyd's x-rays revealed a fracture of the olecranon. He will return to ATL for evaluation by Braves docs tomorrow.
