News: Delgado and Beltran take BP
Carlos Delgado took batting practice before yesterday’s game.
Meanwhile, Carlos Beltran and his knee brace also took live batting practice, after which he shagged roughly 30 fly balls in the outfield.
Beltran later told reporters he felt some pain
in his right knee, but it’s less painful than it was six weeks ago.
“It’s getting better, little by little,” Beltran said.
Both Delgado and Beltran will join Jose Reyes and John Maine in Port St. Lucie tomorrow to continue their rehab.
…from what i can gather, the Mets are quietly hoping to get both beltran and delgado back in two weeks or so… though, that will depend on whether each can run the bases in the next few days… the big thing for both players, as well as reyes, will be running hard and sliding, it seems… until that happens, it’s all a big bowl of Who Knows…
“I’m going to be ready when I’m going to be ready,” Delgado said.
…i would think the same can be said for the rest of the guys on the disabled list… as well as you and i, for that matter…
