Orlando Hernandez is back in a medical boot, this time with a strained tendon, and will be sidelined for two weeks – at which point he’ll be re-evaluated.
Hernandez returned to New York from St. Lucie yesterday for an MRI.
…i hope he makes it back…i do…because he can be an effective pitcher…the thing is, i am no longer holding my breath…and, i’m starting to feel like the Mets should approach their pitching staff as though el duque, as well as Pedro Martinez, will not return…which is not to say they will not…and i hope the eventually do…i just think it’s safer to operate under the former…for security purposes…plus, this way, they can save money on medical tape…
wow
umm…well, not like i really counted on him
I read that Pelfrey got his car towed lookin at an apartment in Long Island City…I guess he can sign a lease now
Ha … true. He should share an apt. with Freddy Garcia.
Meanwhile Kyle Lohse is sitting there with 12 innings of shutout baseball at the bargain baseball price of $4 mill this year. How good would he look in our rotation right about now?
of course. what else did us met fans expect….
Why not? Seriously, I am going to be rooting hard for Pelf tonight. The Mets need this guy to emerge this season in a big way.
me too, especially cause i’m about to sign a lease in the same area
El Duque injury updates are only interesing to med students
Do I understand this right? Last season he
was bothered by a bunion. Bunions can be
taken care of with surgery, right? Could he have
hed off season surgery to repair this thing? And
if he could have, why didn’t he?
i mentioned this a few months ago. i was wondering too why he didn’t have surgery durng the off season. I just think he didn’t want to waste his time off….
They said it would have been a three year rehab from the surgery he needs. Why, I don’t know. My friend had a bunion removed and he was back on a mound in 6 weeks.
and more importantly, why were we fans lied to and told he did?
Where can I get my Figgylicious jersey?
Hey, at least that guy talked about “crying in HD” he was so emotional about playing for the Mets.
and, he’s from brooklyn.
ITS OVER for El Duque, none of us expected him to pitch or be a significant part of this staff anyway.
If you did, your clueless.
Big Pelf gotta step up.
You hope Figueroa can be effective, but I’ll expect nothing from him.
Maybe he should learn a new delivery from a wheel chair.
lol, good one.
Bun yuns?
can’t we trade him…i mean i guess no one wants him anyway since he’s injured, but is there another team out there that’s more desperate than we are who will take him????
we might as save well save the Duque updates for when he isnt hurting something or trying to come back from hurting something.
I’d pretty much dismissed him from thought regarding the 2008 Mets at this point.
He STILL thinks he should start over Pelfrey
You’re a warrior El Duque
Cerrone - friendly suggestion, for the sanity of us fans.
NO more El Duque updates. The guy is finished. Toast. Finito. The End of the line.
He won’t be pitching ever again in a big league game. The guy is falling apart. We don’t need more udpates on his health. Time for Omar to eat the remaining contract, cut the loss…and move on.
It’s honestly rediculous now for us to pretend like hes part of thet team.
I second this motion. Duque needs to resign himself to a retirement home.
It’s all about Big Pelf and Figgy.
I appreciate how good El Duque has been, when healthy, for the Mets. I really do.
But can we please turn the page?
if Pelf has a nice start tonight…. it will help us all in turning that page
Okay, so, what are we looking at:
Johan
Maine
Perez
Pelfrey
?
Figueroa?
Sosa?
GO BIG PELF!
At this point, just sign Claudio Vargas. I mean really, what do the Mets have to lose at this point?
agreed. Actually, sign anyone in the world under 30, that can throw a ball 90 feet, and doesn’t know what DL stands for.
how bout we make a pact as a site..
Big Pelf gets a W tonight…we ALL buy a shirt..
I’m in.
Count me in. Gotta support the team.
GO BIG PELF!!!
completely in!
I’m in.
I actually think Pelf will shock a lot of us here in a hugely positive way.
I’m in.
i’m down
GO BIG PELF!!
SWEET , BMF better have stock available…
AAA:
Bostick, (1-0, 2 GS), 12 IP, 12 H, 3 ER, 12 K, 2.25 ERA
Armas (0-1, 2 GS), 10 IP, 14 H, 4 ER, 7 K, 3.60 ERA
AA:
Niese: (1-0, 2GS), 11 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 10 K, 0.82 ERA
Personally, I’m high on Niese . . . but one of the guys in N’awlins will get the call-up.
yea i totally agree. i love niese but this is why they signed armas right? for when pedro and el duque went down. its early i dont think we should be panicking, lets see what armas can give us
Bostick has put together two nice performances, combining his ability to miss bats with a newfound ability to not miss the strikezone so much.
In other news…Omar Minaya is keeping his fingers crossed that scientists can re-animate the corpse of Satchel Paige to give us some quality spot starts.
Post of the day right there.
Seriously, sometimes I wonder how Omar thinks. He must have been lounging behind his big desk some point today going “You know what…I think I may have signed way too many old players…this is a problem. Next year I’m going to look younger….that should definitely resolve all these injuries…hmm lets start off by signing Castillo and trading Gotay. We’re on our way!”
ha ha ha. To quote Satchel..” How decomposed
would you be if you didn’t know how decomposed
you were?”
This guy is a joke… Complete joke… Release him now…
With the injuries and all the bad karma, I think that this team is really and truly snake bit… I’ve never seen a baseball team have more things go wrong so quickly at one time…
