Bob Klapisch tweeting that the Mets' famed pitcher has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. It apparently hasn't yet been determined if it is malignant.

AY's due for a decision to go his way. May it be this one somehow.

[Guest cooby]

Doesn't matter. A brain tumor is not a good thing.

[ashie62]

No. Sorry Cooby.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Christ. This guy's life really is nothing but loss.

[Guest 41Forever]

So sorry to hear this. Keeping AY in my prayers.

[Edgy MD]

Apparently he spilled the beans at Fantasy Camp. So he's active and stuff.

And that which is inoperable isn't necessarily un-radiatable.

Best wishes, AY.

I'm no doctor, but I suspect it does matter a lot. As bad as an inoperable benign brain tumor is, I would think that an inoperable malignant brain tumor is probably a lot worse.

(I hope I ordered my adjectives correctly.)

That's correct. D-Dad's grandmother had an inoperable but benign brain tumor for twenty years, and for the most part it didn't cause her too many problems.

Man. Poor guy. Here's to hoping he gets the B.

Far more important than any W's.
