Around SBN: Keith Hernandez Reacts To Gary Carter's Passing

Derek Holland reportedly hurts knee, getting an MRI

Per T.R. Sullivan, Derek Holland hurt his right knee doing agility drills this morning, and is heading to the hospital to get an MRI.

Hopefully (and probably) it is nothing, but this is a reminder of how quickly issues of how to winnow the field of starting pitcher candidates can end up resolving themselves.

When do spring games start?

Even if it is just a tweak does this set him back so far where he is pretty much assured to start in AAA? Especially since this is his landing leg I imagine they will take extra precaution

From EG
Evan_P_Grant Holland can’t get MRI this wknd. If feels better Monday, test could be scratched. Current diagnosis: mild right knee sprain.

Fingers crossed.

What's grosser...

Zeke Estacio’s facial AIDS, or Placido Polanco’s horribly misshapen HGH head?

IMO, while facial AIDS is bad, Polanco’s skull is fucking disgusting. He’s worse than Ken Griffey Jr. was after his week long binge on nerve tonic. At least Estacio looks human.

I'll give ya a plus on the Simpsons reference.

But I have to say Polanco could at least sell his skull to a freak show or a museum as a dinosaur head.

There are things you can do these days to fix that.

He’s a major league ballplayer, he makes enough money for those things to be an option. He should probably look into it.

Ready for some baseball.

Because of his limited vocabulary, rangerdanger did not survive the winnowing, early rounds in the scrabble tournament.
