News: Crutches, Flat Ground and Sporadic
By Matthew Cerrone - Jul 2, 2008 12:00 pm

Yes, as Ted Berg was first to report this morning, I broke my toe earlier today.

According to the doctor, though I am required to be on crutches for two to three weeks, I have been cleared to blog from flat ground.

So, while posting from my laptop may be sporadic, I will not require any significant time on the disabled list.

seriously, though, thank you for the kind words of support, which i appreciate…also, hats off to Ted Berg and Mike Nichols for seamlessly stepping in to the rotation

Surely by “seemlessly” you mean “seamlessly”….nice to see that the painkillers are working. :)

maybe he means “without a doubt” rather than “without a trace”?

Matt,

When can we start referring to you as the Moises Alou of the blogosphere? ~:c)

If I read one more Moises Alou = Matt comment I think I am going to cry.

get well soon!

and dont let the trainers change your walking gait, you’ll only end up hurting your calf muscle and missing more time.

I hate to get all emotional, but it’s good to see you up and around, man. What a trooper! The true definition of a warrior!

Oh now I’m getting all misty…

You’re getting to be like the Mets, Matt. If you didn’t have bad luck, you’d have none at all….

Seriously, sorry to hear about the injury. I know how painful it can be. Looking forward to your continued posts.

Can you let us know what exactly happened? There are a few rumors going around… a stubbed toe… you dropped an Iron on it… or you injured it running the bases eventhough you shouldn’t have been running the basees since you are a blogger and that we should really get into the 21st century..

What one is it man?!?

Feel better and keep up the great work. Great to know that even when you go down to injury there is MetsBlog, breaking the news. Kudos to Ted on breaking the story!

i’m just hoping we don’t have to be informed about all matt’s health issues…..any UTI’s, you can keep to yourself, please

By the way, Nunez isn’t coming up to replace Matt, is he? If anything, we need another catcher

Glad to see you back Matt.
Would’ve expected you to take the day off, but it’s obvious that you’re a gamer.

plus he threw a tantrum the other day - threw down his pen in front of everybody when he made a spelling error

Damn, I lost a bet that Moises Alou would be back before Matt. That’ll teach me!
