Let The Injury Bug Be Released


Boy, everybody looks great when they get out of the car on the first day they report to spring training.

We’ve now (Jon Niese, Bartolo Colon, Eric Young, Jr.) experienced our opening round with the injury list. Every team goes through this, especially the young ones who have a bunch of kids who try to do too much, or the old ones who simply no longer can do much at all.

My injury list on the blog usually blossoms to around 20 names by the time spring training ends. And though Mets fans always feel that their team owns the patent on this malady, it just isn’t true. Every team goes through this and it’s the main reason all those guys are invited to ST camps under a minor league contract.


However, two possible members of the final rotation and a starter in the outfield isn’t the best start for this kind of crap.

Don't be surprised if the intra-squad game goes a little easy today. 

And don't expect any sliding into home either.
