After ToTT foolishly proclaimed on Monday that the Mets DL might be getting a little lighter later this month, the all-powerful voodoo returned to teach us who is really in charge here...

On Tuesday, with the Mets daring to have taken the lead from the Cardinals, Luis Castillo fell down the dugout stairs.  Two innings later, K-Rod coughed up the lead and the rest was history... or Pujolstory...

Today, Castillo was out of the lineup with an ankle sprain and the Mets took an early lead... Which lead to pitcher Jon Niese tearing a hamstring tendon after 1+ innings after stretching for to complete a double play.  He will need surgery and is out for the season.  Then, so as to not fully enjoy the rare shuout win, Gary Sheffield... yes, the one that came of the DL on Saturday... left the game early with a hamstring injury.  The word is that it does not look serious... meaning he will likely join Niese under the knife soon enough...

We'd laugh, but this is absolutely ludicrous!  I have never seen a season-long rash of injuries as has befallen the Mets this year.  On the flip side, it is probably the suitable excuse that is keeping us Mets fans from becoming suicidal...

Oh, and Jose Reyes has been revealed to have some scar tissue on his injured knee, causing constant pain... There is no timetable for his return... really?

Very well voodoo doll, we submit to your power!
