Bad news guys: Pornstache has an ACL injury though its probably not torn it looks like hes DL-bound:
According to multiple reports, including Adam Rubin in the Daily News, and Ed Coleman on WFAN, Mets 2B Jose Valentin will soon be placed on the disabled list with an injury to his ACL.
The team has yet to make an official announcement.
…however, the word from new orleans is that Ruben Gotay is already on his way to Shea Stadium, if he isn’t there already…
In 82 at-bats for Triple-A New Orleans, Gotay is batting .256 with two home runs and 13 RBI.
Gotay has struck out 14 times, but also walked 14 times.
…interestingly, gotay is not on the team’s 40–man roster, while Anderson Hernandez is…however, it appears the team has room for an addition, without making a subtraction…so that’s good…i would think Damion Easley will get the bulk of the starts, but i’m excited to see gotay play, as he wow’d me a few times on defense this spring…
