Forgive me if I’m subdued even after the first win of the year against the Rockies on Tuesday, and Mike Pelfrey’s first victory of the year at a place other than Citi Field, along with his first hit of the year … a 2 run difference making single. This internet hack will remain subdued until Ike Davis is either out of the walking boot, or uses the walking boot to kick Jeff Wilpon in the pedoingas before hitting the first Mets grand slam since 1975 and stepping on all four bases and Troy Tulowitzki’s ankle with the boot still on.
Davis has a strained left calf after knocking legs with David Wright on a pop-up, and will have an MRI at some point to determine once and for all if the human ankle has an anterior capsule that can be torn. Once that is settled, they’ll see how quickly Davis can return. He thinks today. And Custer thought they were friendly Indians too.
(I’m referring of course to Sonny Custer, who was never called up by the Cleveland Indians.)
