Gwreck Old-Timey Member Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 Source: Mets.com7 Stitches in his finger.]Reyes said there was a large amount of blood from the wound, and that he was told he would not play on Saturday or Sunday. Currently listed as day-to-day after X-rays on the finger were negative, Reyes' status for the All-Star Game at Pittsburgh will be re-evaluated on Sunday.]Reyes said he felt the instinct to dive head-first into the base, trying to beat out an infield hit on a ground ball to Jacobs. He said he "hopefully" would not try it again, though he naturally intends to continue sliding head-first on stolen base attempts."When we're in the game, we don't think about it," Reyes said. "We just do it. It's tough." I hope Wille fines him or something.NEVER SLIDE into first base!

Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 The way he slides, he's lucky it wasn't his tongue.He'll be fine.When will I see Delgado again?
Elster88 Old-Timey Member Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 It's almost a good injury, in that it's not serious, and may teach him not to slide into first again.But I doubt that he will learn his lesson.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 Nobody needs that finger - get it amputated and get him back in there.
