Heilman, Sosa, Pedro, and more....


The Mets have placed right hand pitcher Jorge Sosa on unconditional release waivers after not being able to find a trade partner. This will make him a free agent. Sosa was demoted all the way back on May 13th.

For some reason the Mets are already given up on Aaron Heilman after a bad start to the season. They are looking for a set up man for him, but last time I checked he was a set up man and a pretty successful one in his career at that.

During tonight's Met game Moises Alou left in the middle of the 3rd inning. It is being reported that he has a cramp in his left calf muscle.

Pedro Martinez was scheduled to throw a bullpen session today, but returned to the Dominican Republic to be with his father who is suffering from brain cancer. It seems that who was not going to start against the Rockies anyway and that this will not push him back and he will still start at the end of the month 29-31 against the Los Angeles Dodgers. I think all of us hope that Pedro's father will be okay and make it through this tough time in his life.
