Last week Jeremy Hefner, another of their rotation starters was told he needed TJ surgery, and a bunch of disappointed Mets fans said "at least it's not Matt Harvey!" Terrible news for the Mets. Hank Schulman said today he doesn't think any pitcher who has ever had this diagnosis has been able to avoid TJ surgery, so it's just a matter of time, because this doesn't heal on its own. That franchise is snake bit. Remember the big three of Pulsipher, Isringhausen and Wilson?

Interesting how everyone says Harvey has perfect mechanics and a flawless delivery and yet he's probably going under the knife. Lincecum gets ridiculed a lot for his unique, and some say flawed, delivery and yet he's never had a major injury.

Randy -- Interesting how everyone says Harvey has perfect mechanics and a flawless delivery and yet he's probably going under the knife. Lincecum gets ridiculed a lot for his unique, and some say flawed, delivery and yet he's never had a major injury. Rog -- I expected Tim to be at least as durable as he has. I did -- and still do -- worry about his not icing after games. I wonder if that has something to do with his fastball's losing velocity faster than most pitchers.
