Injury Update
Here’s an update on a couple of injuries: Ryan Church has been sporting sunglasses to disguise the shiner on his eye and protect his eyes which are still sensitive to light as the efects of the concussion he suffered Sunday after colliding with Marlon Anderson in the outfield take their course. He is slowly getting […]
Gotay’s Ankle Ailing
The report on Ruben Gotay has gotten worse. After injuring his ankle yesterday Gotay was spotted walking on crutches with a boot on this morning. Xrays taken on the right ankle he injured the Sunday sliding into home plate showed a possible fracture. He’ll undergo a CT scan tomorrow. I like Gotay but with Luis […]
Delgado, Church, Anderson Ailing
The injury fairy visited the Mets yesterday. Her specific appointments were with Carlos Delgado, Ryan Church and Marlon Anderson. Delgado flew back to New York for an MRI which revealed a hip impingement. He’s expected to miss several days. I did a little research on what a hip impingement is and didn’t like what I […]
Ricardo Rincon Signed to Minor League Deal
The Mets signed Ricardo Rincon to a minor league contract today. Rincon has had a rough time of it the last couple of years with injuries. It’s a no lose situation to sign a guy like this. Either he is ready to play again and proves he can or he doesn’t. If it’s the former […]
Endy Hurts Other Hammy
It’s mid January. We’re heading down the home stretch of the off season with spring training starting next month.

From here on out we’ll start hearing about things that may or may not have ramifications on spring training. Look, […]
Injury Updates
Mets second baseman Luis Castillo had surgery to clean out his left knee which was bothering him this past season. He is expected to be ready for spring training. He is, of course, a free agent so even if he’s ready it doesn’t guarantee he’ll be a Met. Duaner Sanchez is recovering nicely and is […]
Three Rehabbing Pitchers
Some off season injury notes…. Orlando Hernandez had a bunion removed from his foot. El Duque will also have surgery to repair a tendon in his right foot. He should be ready in plenty of time for spring training. Duaner Sanchez may participate in winter ball and is expected to be ready for spring training. […]
Pedro Returns
Pedro Martinez‘s return from surgery has been widely reported in many venues since it was announced before Friday’s game but I thought I would mention it here anyway. Pedro will make the Labor Day start this afternoon against the Cincinnati Reds. It’s a pretty good time to get Pedro back. Though the Mets swept the […]
Mets Wounded Update
Ramon Castro was placed on the DL over the weekend for his arthritic back. With Paul Lo Duca already on the shelf the Mets now ‘boast’ a catching tandem of Mike DiFelice and Sandy Alomar Jr. Endy Chavez played in his fourth rehab game in St. Lucie last night. He said he is ready to […]
