Mets facing swine flu scare
An SNY employee who travels with the Mets has been stricken by an unidentified strain of the flu, prompting concerns about swine flu in a clubhouse that has had two players come down with a stomach virus in the past several days. The Mets would not identify the person, but a source close to the situation said it is a member of the network's technical staff. The employee has been isolated from the team since coming down with the flu Monday, and -- as with everyone who has the flu these days -- is being tested for swine flu. However, it could take up to a week before test results reveal whether it is swine flu. In the meantime, the Mets are taking every precaution possible.
(Newark Star-Ledger)

But I read that Beltran and Maine have been tested and don't have swiney.

Beltran and Maine are dead, morbs

thank you, Dr McCoy

j.j. putz is certainly dead

Beltran w/ a double right outta sickbed

My prediction: dude loses his job to Putz by the ASG.

dude sounds like Sam Champion's next love interest. definitely doesn't sound like he's from Venezuela. i bet he has a square jaw.

weird espn also added a #P category

altho i guess its interesting that pujols went 2-4 only seeing 7 pitches while carl crawford went 2-4 (with 1 bb) seeing 26 pitches

Putz admits to feeling sharp pain in his right elbow. Worse:

Reyes Tears Tendon in Right Hamstring
By Ben Shpigel, NY Times

PITTSBURGH — An M.R.I. exam in New York revealed a “small” tear in Jose Reyes’s right hamstring tendon — a new injury, not a re-aggravation of the calf problems that have kept him out of the lineup for most of the last three weeks. He is scheduled to rest for two days before resuming treatment, but then what?

Will he be out for another week? Two more weeks? A month? More? The Mets did not offer a timetable, but two to three weeks is a conservative estimate. Even though this tear is new, apparently sustained Wednesday morning during his second at-bat in an extended spring training game, the problem is old.

My prediction: dude loses his job to Putz by the ASG.

prognostication: tougher than wakeboarding

and just to be clear, he didn't mean Jimmy Fallon wd lose his job to Putz

yay, Putz out 8-10 weeks. Maybe Billy Wagner will have his job by Labor Day.

not a whole lotta laughing at LOLivan these days, eh?

as for Livan, he's Plan G, or N.

Johan gives up 4 bombs for only 2nd time in career (I'm guessing he didn't win the first time)

LOBs gonna get ya

I had a bad feeling after Werth's "Swoboda" catch

that lineup facing redding tomorrow should lead to ugliness

oh YEAH?

Mike Pelfrey
2-3
1 RBI

redding not ugly :-D

still, I'm glad I went to an off-Broadway show.

NEED REYES AND A FIRST BASEMAN

yall can make it to the point where delgado gets back

Delgado assumed gone for the year

tbh the mets should just buy russell branyan from the mariners
