More injuries for Mets
Mets starting pitcher Fernando Nieve, who was already filling in for other injured starters, collapsed in the second inning today against the Braves with an apparent leg injury. He was trying to run out a single, but he went to the ground and had to be carted off. Looks like he’s going to be done for a while.
The good news for Mets fans is that Tim Redding was ready to take over for Nieve. And yes, we are kidding about that being good news.
The Mets are currently nine games out of first in the NL East, and while it’s too soon to say they are cooked, it just doesn’t look good unless they can get some guys healthy.
While we’re talking about More injuries for Mets | Off the Record (OTR), Excessive arousal leads to altered muscle tension. This further leads to alteration of fine balance between agonist & antagonist which is the hall mark of a quality performance. Once this synergy is lost between agonist & antagonist; a changed technique rather than the natural technique is used. There is also “Loss of rhythm”. This factor predisposes to injury.
