Rivera may need surgery
Mariano Rivera pitched four times in five days before the Yankees were eliminated from playoff contention this week. On Thursday, he left the team to return to New York for a magnetic resonance imaging exam on his right shoulder. There is some fear that Rivera could need arthroscopic surgery, although the procedure would be minor and would not be expected to affect him next spring.

If Mo's surgery DOES affect him next year, they will put Joba in the closer's role, and say that's how they planned it all along ... reliever, to starter, to reliever, to closer.

according the they Yankee website, he will be available for this weekend.. that he is having the MRI and then meeting the team in boston today. i don't really think its going to be a big deal. besides that whole article says that his body is "cracky" and its not just his shoulder

Rivera is fine but if he is feeling sore I wouldn't use him the rest of the year unless Moose leaves Sunday's game with the lead and with his chance to win 20 games on the line I'd go to him to finish it off.

Mariano, surgery...
I don't even want to hear those two words in the same sentance, paragraph, day!
I will be watching this one. He has been the most consistant and dominant player, although in a specific and limited role, I have seen. For a long time Mariano was automatic, or as close as it comes in baseball.
