lol, Carlos Beltran has more home runs and RBIs tonight than Pujols has had all season and it's only the 4th inning. How's that $250 million 10 year contract working out for you Anaheim?
Got a tip for us?

All the other injuries can be dealt with, if Rivera goes down all hell will break lose.
Initial report is twisted right knee, lets hope thats all it is.
I read somewhere that someone described it as the Derrick Rose situation and I ***** my pants.
Looks like he just landed wrong and twisted the leg/knee. I don't expect anything major maybe a stint on the 15 day DL, but then again at Mo's age who knows what could come out of this. I am not so much worried about who will take over for Mo during his absence thanks to Robertson being so dominant. It puts Soriano in for the 8th, but who else will create the bridge to D-Rob?

Hughes may be an option if Phelps performs well in the rotation...though his last start was probably his best of the year. And I assume it would also depend on when Pettitte returns.
Damn. Will this mean will he come back for one more season? Or was his last game his last game? We will miss you Mo. Thanks for everything you have done for the team.... Sucks you last season had to end like this.
I can't imagine he would want to go out like this...
Such a class act and an amazing Yankee. Hopefully he gets well soon.
The handing of the baton is going to happen (maybe temporarily) sooner than we thought - if anyone is up to the task D-Rob is.
But, what if he comes back next year and he sucks balls...... Wouldn't want to go out like that either.
ESPN is reporting he hurt his knee catching flyballs during batting practice before the game. Man, that is a tough break for one of the best to play the game.

He was just getting into a groove this year - as he has done every year. It's just how long and how much work it will take to come back - he's not 25 any more.
Jack Curry seems to think Mo would come back next year to go out on top and I agree.
I agree as well. And if anyone can, he can.
And as an aside...What a ********** few weeks for ACL's...
"I'm coming back," Rivera told reporters Friday in Kansas City. Write it down in big letters. I'm not going out like this. Miracles happen."
“It's not an easy situation but we've been through this before, and we're being tested one more time,” Rivera said. “There's reasons why it happens. You have to take it the way it is and fight, fight through it. Now we have to just fight.”
