K-Rod is Down For The Count

 

As if the Mets need to add more insult to injury, Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez had come through big time. Following his disastrous confrontation with his father-in-law which resulted in punches being thrown, spending a night in custody, and losing 2 days pay due, it has been reported that K-Rod has torn a ligament in his pitching hand.

While the Mets are in Houston ready to take on the Astros, Rodriguez is spending this Monday possibly sulking at home because his hand will need surgery to repair and therefore, Rodriguez is out for the rest of the season. The Mets are already 10 games behind division-leading Atlanta and with K-Rod's absence for the rest of the season, the Mets will really have to scramble now to find some footing before October and the playoffs soon approach.
