    On the DL ....tendonitis on his wrist....maybe forearm.
    MRI negative on his elbow.

    It's not the elbow but hopefully this isn't a precursor for things to come with Tanaka.

    They're just delaying the inevitable. The surgery could've been done last year.

    You know life isn't fair when Tanaka goes down & the Tub stays in the rotation pitching to his winless near 6 ERA.

    Just watch the next day or two. It will be wrist, forearm and then finally something about the elbow.

    According to Tanaka himself he claims the elbow is fine.

    I surely hope that's the case.

    I think Mitchell or Montgomery will get the call.
    Okay guys....let's deal with.....we're probably going to find something out about ONE of our young starters....maybe two.

    But Whitley is also probably going to stay....the more the league sees of him the higher his ERA skyrockets.....jeez, I hope he makes me eat my words.

    And I don't believe Cashman will trade away the farm for Hamel or any other veteran SP.
    Of course there's nothing wrong with making a deal to fill a hole if you feel desperate and I don't see Cashman panicking and trading away a couple of top prospects.

    Help is on the way.....either from Scranton and/or Trenton.

    They can manage fine as long as Tanaka isn't a long term thing .

    I may be crazy, but there's a fair chance one of the call-ups (Mitchell/Montgomery) could be quite adequate and if this team can continue to score all season close to what they're currently doing ...that provides good protection and help for the SP.

    They lost Tanaka last year, came within 4 or so games of a WC spot with a horrible offense.

    And maybe even Nova returns in good form.
    Yes, this could still be a very entertaining and gratifying season.

    Why don't I trust Cash-ban? The way he operates, he should do the surgery......
    then we know Tanaka will be out the whole year. SOB.

    The SOB mentions that Capuano will be a good replacement. OMG.
    He just makes me ill.

    Shane Greene deal never should have been done, specially since they weren't resigning McCarthy and were gonna give Drew a contract.

    When did Shane Greene turn into an established top of the rotation guy?
    I wasn't informed....ah sh!t.
