For those of you who are struggling at the catcher position with the likes of Geovany Soto, Matt Wieters, or Russell Martin, have no fear. Miguel Montero (right knee menisectomy) should be back within the next few weeks. Now is the time to add him, if he isn’t already stashed on your DL. He […]

So much for having merely a bone bruise.
It looks like Carlos Beltran made a wise choice in going back to his own Doctor - Dr. Richard Steadman - as it turns out he had a good bit of Osteoarthritis in his right knee. He had Microfracture surgery on Wednesday, which means that at the very […]
