Agent: Santana kept injury secret
After temporarily saving the Mets' season with one of the best pitching performances in franchise history, Johan Santana said he was not trying to do anything crazy. Santana, it turns out, pitched that three-hit shutout against Florida last Saturday with a torn meniscus in his left knee. He had arthroscopic surgery Wednesday morning, according to the team, and is expected to be ready for spring training. Chris Leible, one of Santana's agents, said Santana's knee had bothered him throughout September, but that Santana did not want to have it checked out for fear that he would be advised not to continue pitching.

Good for him, and at the end of the day, the Mets still staged the largest case of public urination in history.

And that is the way game is supposed to be played. If you are paid as much as he is you go out there even if you are hurt. Cal Ripken did it for years but not one patted him on the back for it until he broke the consecutive games played record. This just comes at a bad time with the Mets losing so it looks like they are making excuses.

Doesn't even matter if Santana pitched hurt or not. His performance didn't hurt the Mets. Now if the team starts telling you that half the bullpen was injured then we can sound the bs alert because that will really out the bull in bullpen and let you know excuses are being made. But despite all this Minaya just got an extension and a raise and Manuel is also about to get a deal. Wish I worked somewhere where failure is rewarded.

Who is this guy, Tiger Woods? Give him the Cy Young now! If he had anything relief pitchers behind him he would have won 22 games easy.

Not to mention you could change those pesky unpronouncable names as well. I swear I get called for every panel when stuck with Jury duty because my name is one of the few the guy can pronounce.
