So I just signed onto Metsblog.com and found out through Kevin Burkhardt’s twitter post that Jose Reyes will be out until the all star break maybe longer with a torn right hamstring.  I know I am not the biggest Reyes supporter but this is devastating news to a team that is dropping like flies.

On another note, Carlos Beltran came back today and killed the ball.  In his post game news conference he showed some fire how it is unacceptable to get swept by the lowly Pirates.  That’s good to see Beltran showing some fire and leadership.

“The reality is, coming here to Pittsburgh and getting swept, for me, I feel embarrassed… We need to find a way to play better and to focus more on what we need to accomplish… I mean, we have to take this personally.  It can’t happen… I know the Pirates are a big-league team, but we’re better than them.  We’re better than them, and we know we’re better than them.  But, we have to do something about it.  McCLouth wasn’t here and they still came out and scored 11 runs.  11 runs?  We have to play better.”

J.J. Putz may now also need surgery soon as he continues to pitch in pain. He’s headed to New York for an evaluation tomorrow.

Omar, time to use those rollover minutes.
