It's been reported that Houston Astros star shortstop Carlos Correa will miss significant time after his rib was fractured during a massage treatment. That's as bizarre as it gets, and on Friday, he and his fiancee Daniella Rodriguez posted a video on her YouTube channel to explain the injury once again and downplay internet rumors about the fracture's...true genesis. Take a look:

Correa is expected to miss four-to-six weeks with this freak injury. That's a huge loss for the Astros, especially since Correa was putting together a stellar season.

On top of giving their sides of the story involving the injury, Correa and Rodriguez also wanted to address and squash the rumors floating around the internet that this incident had to do with domestic violence.

"Some people have taken the opportunity to blame me for the situation that occurred," Rodriguez said. "Some people have gone to the extent of saying it was domestic violence. We're just here to let you guys know this is not a joke. Domestic violence is not something to joke around about ... It is not OK to say things like that."

Shame on anyone who decided to throw around that baseless rumor. Yes, this is the kind of injury you don't see everyday, and you wonder how that happened, but to go that far without any facts is absurd.
