Health: Ramon Castro has Right Quad Strain

by Matthew Cerrone on August 27th, 2008 at 9:58 am

Ramon Castro left last night’s game in the fifth inning with what the team described as ‘a right quadriceps strain.’

According to SNY, Castro will travel to New York today for an MRI.

…from what i understand, Robinson Cancel will leave New Orleans for Philadelphia this morning, just to be safe…in all likelihood, cancel would have been added to the roster on September 1, regardless of castro’s injury

By the way, Castro played in just 14 games during August and September last season, and just 11 games during August and September in 2006.

He is batting .242 in 43 games this season for the Mets, while throwing out just 29 percent of runners attempting to steal a base.
