In the case of Holland, what does "shoulder fatigue" really mean? I've heard reports that he has lost 10 to 15 pounds due to his illness. Could this be the cause? Or has his weakened state lead to something a little more serious like an impingement?

It could be something as simple as the illness. Losing that much weight in a short amount of time clearly saps the energy and causes muscles to fatigue earlier. The hope is that the illness caused the fatigue and they were able to catch it before it becomes more serious. It will still take a few weeks to build up strength and put the weight back on.

"This is an invasive procedure that’s avoided unless there is strong suspicion for a torn labrum or rotator cuff."

I don't disagree with you that this is normally the case, but in Garcia's situation is seems they're doing this because all of the less invasive procedures they did the past week turned up nothing, yet he continues to complain that something is wrong, and not necessarily because they think he has a torn labrum.

Agreed, I'm not saying it wasn't necessary. Clearly something is going on or else he wouldn't be on the DL. When they use that test they look for a whole bunch of stuff. A torn labrum may not be at the top of the list but it's something that is in the differential diagnosis. They could also be concerned with the capsule, rotator cuff, joint cartilage, etc.
