Floyd's Kidneys

While we're on the subject of kidneys, Cliff Floyd is being checked for trouble in his pool shaped organs:

Floyd has a family history of kidney problems, which triggered concern among Mets doctors.

"Everyone needs to know I'm OK," Floyd said Thursday, one day after missing practice to have tests. "I'm still going out there and playing. No one needs to worry now. The tests were in response to small things."

The results of an ultrasound conducted by a nephrologist to gauge kidney function won't be known until Wednesday, Floyd said. Floyd's father had kidney failure and needed a transplant.

Let's hope the tests prove negative.
