Newsbreakers

August 31, 2009

Oliver Perez is scheduled to undergo surgery Tuesday to remove scar tissue from the patella tendon in his left knee, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

Perez will miss the remainder of the 2009 campaign, but is expected to be ready for spring training, if he doesn't suffer any setbacks in his recovery. The erratic hurler has two years left on his contract with New York, at $12MM per season.

August 26, 2009

According to the Twitter page of Newsday's David Lennon, Oliver Perez has been diagnosed with patella tendon tendinitis and will have season-ending knee surgery.

Our View:

This is starting to get unbelievable. It is dangerous to put a Mets' uniform on these days, and pretty soon they are going to run out of players. Perez was struggling while he was healthy, but he was still a better option than whoever will take his spot.

August 25, 2009

Oliver Perez is headed back to New York to have his right knee examined, according to the New York Post's Bart Hubbuch.

Our View:

An injury otherwise known as "Ollie won't stop throwing balls or allowing home runs, so we need to make up an injury to get him out of the rotation." Regardless, coupled with the news that Johan Santana will miss the rest of the regular season, the Mets now appear to be playing baseball in a parallel universe where getting injured is good and staying healthy is bad. Maybe they should not have released Livan Hernandez after all. More on Perez's "condition" when it becomes available.

August 23, 2009

Oliver Perez had his shortest outing in a season full of them on Sunday, allowing six runs in just 0.2 innings of the Mets 9-7 loss to the Phillies at home.

Our View:

Ollie looked like he had turned a corner earlier this month, but has been awful again in his past two starts. If he doesn't start pitching drastically better soon, the Mets could very well do something drastic with him.

August 21, 2009

MLB.com is reporting that Mets' starter Oliver Perez has pronounced himself ready to go for Sunday's start against the Phillies. Perez was dealing with soreness in his right knee after this last start.

Our View:

Perez threw a solid bullpen session on Thursday, and his knee is doing much better. He will likely keep it rested over the next two days, and he should be fine to pitch on Sunday. That being said, he is a terrible fantasy matchup against the juggernaut that is the Phillies' offense right now.
