Injuries: Maine, Perez, Reyes and Beltran
David Lennon, in a post to Twitter, says that both John Maine and Oliver Perez will start each end of a doubleheader for St. Lucie on Monday.
Lennon also reports that Jose Reyes, who is on the disabled list with a torn tendon in his hamstring, feels something on “quick moves”.
Reyes reportedly played catch on the field prior to last night’s game but was supposed to take ground balls.
…that doesn’t sound good, considering that a major part of his game is stealing bases, which requires a “quick move”…
Update, 5:25 pm, by Matthew Cerrone:
“Carlos Beltran is hurting again from the bone bruise below his right knee and he plans to get an MRI soon to find out the extent of the damage,” writes David Lennon, in a post to his blog for Newsday.
…seriously, at this point, you’d think they’d have one of those LifeScreening machines set up in the clubhouse, like a security gate in the airport… guys walk through it, if bells and whitsles start ringing they step aside and go directly to the trainer’s room… otherwise, if all is quite, go home…
For quotes from Beltran, check out Lennon’s blog.
…beltran is in today’s game, which i would think is a good sign…
