NNNOOOOOOOO!!!

An inflamed elbow?

...

AN INFLAMED ELBOW???

You mean to tell me that, after TWELVE WINS...TWELVE REALLY NICE WINS...an INFLAMED ELBOW is what brings the great Masahiro Tanaka down??? I mean, that's like Mike Tyson getting taken out by a strained pinky!

What does this mean for my team?? Well, it means that we're gonna need Tanaka back, unless there's a miraculous recovery by Brandon McCarthy (and I really hope this isn't a joke). So, hopefully this...inflamed elbow thing is a brief, quickie thing, that isn't going to take long at all.

Please.

Gained and Lost

 

 First Chase Utley came back strong, with a homer on the first pitch back from an injury.

 

Then, two days after I commented of the strength of the Yankees' pitching staff, Sabathia and Pettite go on the DL. This is exactly the opposite of what we needed. I really hope we can rebound.

Ha ha

Yeah, the Mets have to play the first part of the season without this guy. We had a monthlong injury on the other side of town last year. Now it's your turn.
