As are my playoff victory hopes.

For those of you in keeper leagues, the good news is that Santana is only in need of arthroscopic surgery and not Tommy John, so the hopes of him pitching next year look good.

It sucks that a player can play 80% of the games during the season but not be eligible at all for fantasy playoffs.

I'm screwed.

I read bone chips in elbow,that don't sound good!

New York Mets pitcher Johan Santana will have what is being described as minor surgery on his elbow and will miss the rest of this season, the team announced Tuesday.


Santana

The Mets said Tuesday that Santana will have arthroscopic surgery to clean up bone chips in his left elbow. The team said his expected to ready for spring training next year.

The decision was made after Santana had tests Tuesday afternoon. The initial expectation within the organization, sources said, was that Santana's injury was not so serious that he would require reconstructive elbow surgery.

Yep - so that means since I am in a keeper league, I have the ultimate pleasure of having him ride the pine for me during the playoffs and I have to hope that he comes back healthy next spring.

Lucky me.

Smart move for the Mets to get him into surgery ASAP. They haven't got a chance in Hades of making the playoffs.

Smart for them, bad for me - I believe if he was on the active roster as of September 1st, I could have used him in the playoffs - I have an email out to the league commish to find out - I just like to know how close I came to winning it all.

That leaves me with a rotation of Halladay, Josh Johnson, Garza, Scott Richmond and Justin Masterson.

Oh well, at least I gave it a chance this year...
