Who's hobbling around in pain. They really need to shut up because their
going to come out of this very badly.

Am I the only one that doesn't see this as such a terrible thing? The guy
was in chronic pain, and took action so he can come back pain free and play
90% of this season healthy. What would you have done? Of course he should
have consulted with the team, if he didn't, but it's over now.

You are probably the only one with that interpretation because most
people choose to see reality, not fanciful visions of what ought to
be. Beltran is finished as an elite player. His body is
deteriorating rapidly, as evidenced by this chronic knee problem. The
best you'll see from him in the future is 25 homers, 85 RBI, a .265
BA, and even lazier play in center field. Beltran is already the most
overrated outfielder in the game today, considering how many pop flies
he allows to drop in front of him due to his playing on the warning
track. His inability to chase down outfield flies is only going to
get worse. Beltran's five tool days are over; he'll now join the
many Mut fans in just being a plain old tool.

Incidentally, this surgery issue underscores how the Muts are the most
poorly run franchise in MLB. No communication between the front
office and the players results in ridiculous stories of internal
strife just like this one. It's for reasons like this that the
Yankees and their fans consider the Muts a joke.

That's the funniest thing you've ever posted here. A real shocker, I'd say.

Just a reminder that in 2008, this genius made the exact same
pronouncement about Johan Santana, who went on to lead the league in
ERA and finish third in the Cy Young balloting.

Keep those brilliant predictions coming, Nostradumbass.
