From Newsday’s David Lennon :
The Mets just announced that Moises Alou will have surgery tomorrow to repair a hernia and will miss the next four to six weeks. Alou was sent back to New York earlier today for further tests after complaining of discomfort in the groin area and the Mets got word of the results this evening.
Man, if I had to go back to New York everytime I had discomfort in the groin area, I’d be on JetBlue every week. Wait a second…
Finally, I’m ready to entertain the notion of the Mets signing Barry Bonds. If only to block Ben J. Johnson’s career progress.
In noting the White Sox’s decision to pair Steve Stone with Ed Farmer, Bob Timmerman asks “is the disparity in quality between Farmer and Stone the greatest among any pair of broadcasters working together today?” Huh, I guess Bob didn’t catch Chris Matthews and Non-Metallic K.O. last night.
A day after allowing 16 runs to Texas, 8 Texas A&M-Corpus Christi pitchers combined to issue 17 walks this afternoon in the Longhorns’ 22-3 victory. No word yet if Dusty Baker has sent Augie Garrido a telegram, chiding him for clogging up the basepaths.
It’s a good thing they have someone waiting in the wings like Milled…fuck.
Let the Angel Pagan Era (re)begin!
Don’t get me started on the Milledge thing. And yes, you’re right, it’s all Pagan going forward, apparently. If I were Eric Valent, I’d start polishing my resume right now. Either for the Mets or possibly a managerial position at Brookstone.
I wonder if he’s tried peeing on the hernia. Couldn’t hurt.
Andrew,
Who is to say that Milledge wouldn’t have the same concussion that Church currently has? That’s a weak argument/gripe right there. Someone has to play right field.
Because he probably would have been too busy giving out high-fives or moonwalking or some crazy shit to even go after the ball. I’m sure Omar still has Shawn’s phone number though.
Touche.
