According to a source close to MetsBlog.com, Matt Cerrone injured his toe while getting ready for work this morning and took himself to the emergency room for x-rays.
Cerrone, who has previously been bothered by knee problems and peanut butter, is expected to miss at least several hours of posting on MetsBlog.
…i get the sense that he will be okay, but apparently the toe is in bad shape… no word on whether the injury will require a walking boot or a stint in extended spring training…
…Update…
X-rays revealed a severe break. Doctors have confirmed that Cerrone will require crutches and walking boot.
…amazing… this team just can’t avoid the injury bug…

I was wondering where he was. Get better Matt…
any update on exactly how he did it? Did he drop an Iron on it?
Reports are murky, but I think he honestly just stubbed it.
Man. I hate boring injuries. He should have at least made it interesting.
BTW Bloggers need to get into the 21st century. You can’t be having professionals walking around a house with things they can stub their toes on. Now, we are without our best blogger. Interleague-blogging is getting old!
lmao!!
Ted, please update us as to when he can start typing off of flat ground.
i hope… people notice Ted’s icing on the comedic cake…the inclusion…of …Cerrone’s…”elliptical” stylings…
Matt Cerrone has been designated for assignment. The Mets have ten days to trade him, or he’ll report back to Metsblog.
or another blog may pick him up……
I don’t mean to laugh….but the way Ted ran the story is hilarious!!!! Get well soon Matt.
haha agreed…and the title of the last post was a gem:
“Notes: Reports of arm’s death exaggerated”
Matt – Say hi to Moises for me.
get well.
Who comes off the DL first Matt or Moises?
What a bum. Release him ASAP.
Get Well Soon Matt.
Dont get on any planes with the team, itll only make the symptoms worse, No matter what they tell you.
Tell the truth, it’s really a bunion, right?
I don’t mind that he injured his toe…what really irks me is the way he threw down his coffee mug after the injury. Did you see how he just walked over to the front door on his way to the hospital?
Seems to me that if Cerrone actually cared, he would have thrown less of a tantrum and made the effort to get to the hospital more quickly.
So immature..trade him. NOW!
lmao
Post of the year, thanks Ted!
I had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn’t April 1.
Feel better Matt! Are you rehabbing in Brooklyn or Kingsport?
I think we would all prefer it to be April 1 so this season could start over
haha right on both accounts.
Man, that blows!
……..i blame Reyes.
I blame Willie.
Clearly its Delgado’s fault…
Man the met injury bug extends to the bloggers….
Get well soon Matt!!!!
Maybe he can get his boot signed by Hernandez.
And here we were, hoping to trade him for a Right Handed Firstbaseman — what type of trade value will he have now? Who they calling up to replace him? Is this going to be another stint of Robinson Cancel?
And if Willie was Manager, this never would have been allowed to happen
hahahahah
As if Omar couldn’t see this coming? Fire Omar!
This post and string of replies is making it hard to feel sorry for Matt. Hilarity
‘well played’ Ted!
Yes it is. Matt is going to come back and be like:
“Dude. You are making my fans laugh. We can’t have any of this. These are METS FANS. They do not laugh!”
Peanut butter?
OK. Here’s what you do. Smear the peanut butter all over your toe, then have the dog lick it off. The doggy spit will heal your toe in no time at all!
BTW, I’m looking forward to reading the incredibly embarrassing story that precedes this.
But it’s YOUR dog…
And your point is… what?
My dog not good enough for Matt’s fractured lower digit?
Why I’ve never been so insulted in all my life!
Good day sir…
I said GOOD DAY!
Yeah, we got it.
“But its YOUR dog”
Most people missed that “Road Trip” reference..
I got your back NickA33
Too bad Peterson is gone. He could fix that toe in 10 minutes!
Ed Coleman is reporting that we’ve just traded Fernando Martinez to the Rays for one of their mediocre veteran bloggers….it’s Kazmir all over again!
Any truth to rumor that Matt tripped over is newly grown goatee (which he started to grow after Jerry softened prohibitions of growing facial hair)?
Willie softened up those rules a long time ago.
Great post – too funny.
I think it’s all smoke and mirrors to get Matt a stint on the DL so he can infiltrate and see what’s REALLY going on with injured guys such as Alou and Orlando – lol.
The pecking order of Metsblog will be revealed by which writer gets to hold up Matt’s leg while the rest of the writers bathe him.
I just realized this means no new postings of mid-season grades!
Aw, man! I was looking forward to some hardcore voting.
You do know that this minor setback is enough for me to warrant dropping your grade down to a B-, don’t you?
Yeah. You just take a moment to think about what it is you’ve done, young man.
When did Moises Alou change his name to Matt Cerrone?
What a bummer. A boot in the middle of the summer. I hope you at least get the wheelchair seating in Shea for free… get better soon Matt!
So i guess ted takes matts spot in the order…whos left on the bench?
But its the summer of CERRONE!!!!
He was going to read a book and pray frolf!
I WAS IN THE POOL!!!!
Get better Matt and don’t come back unless you are 100%. We do not need any heroes or setbacks. All the best.
I hope this is a joke, although a weird one. I’m guessing it isn’t though and in that case, Matt – feel better, man! Too bad!
Will he be ready for the Phillies series though? Do we need to call someone else up? This day-to-day stuff leaves our bench short!
I could not contain my laughter when I read this post. Get better soon Matt, regards to El Duque, Moises, and Angel Pagan when you see them during your rehab stint. And no late night/early morning cab rides for you either!
this post can probably go into blogging HOF as one of the funniest post ever!!
Not the Matt getting hurt part, now that’s not funny.
Get well soon, Matt. and don’t hang out with Mets players too much, apparently they are contagious.
My sources tell me Matt was actually injured while trying to type an update on Alou and El Duque…any truth to that rumor?
Get well soon Matt so that you can give us some more mets info!!!
Just hilarious! Thanks for the laugh Ted :)
You sure Matt wasn’t injured while riding in a cab at three in the morning?
Get better soon.
To Matt:
Having broken the little toe on both of my feet — and rather badly at that — you need to realize that the break is least of the problems. You should be checked for ligament or tendon damage (whatever there is in the toe, I’m not sure). Both times I broke it, there was nothing they could do for the break so it naturally healed. However, I have pain in both little toes now when I put pressure on them, no doubt due to some structural damage caused by the same incident that caused the break in the bone.
Hurting toes suck…..I merely bruised my little toe (no breaks seen in x-rays) 6 months ago and there is still some pain if i lean on it the wrong way.
Interesting injury.
I guess it could be worse and could have been an injury like Brandon Inge just suffered moving a pillow.
Is Matt gonna rehab by writing for the Mets minor league blog?
Get well soon.
This only happened because Willie sucks, Omar’s a racist and the Wilpons are cheap and clueless.
Is it Lima time now?
Hope the toe heals quickly, dude.
Matt,
Be like Moises and pee on those digits. They’ll be able to withstand 100lb weights falling on them and taxis driving over them in no time.
Feel better soon!
If urine is such a magical potion, Moises Alou should take golden showers so he doesn’t get injured all the time.
matt cerrone = moises alou?
Matty!! How do you injure your toe getting ready? And so badly? Aw, hon.
Any news on which toe it is? Why can’t we get accurate injury information?
I hope it wasn’t ‘the piggie that went to market’!
With thr Yankees and Mets both on over the 4th you can chill and start the healing
feel better we need you
Peace, JM
SNY is reporting that Toby Hyde has been recalled from http://www.metsminorleagueblog.com to take Matt’s roster spot.
I wonder if Manuel will play him, or bury him on the bench like Willie…
Hyde will blog, but only against right-handed starters until he “gets into a nice little rhythm”, stated Jerry Manuel. He may also be used as a late inning replacement for Berg “for defensive purposes”, despite never having live-blogged before.
Cerrone is expected to cover the Mets Minor League blog in a rehab assignment with an eye to rejoining the big league club at the All-Star break.
