Mo Pain Ya
Wily Mo Pena underwent an MRI and will miss at least four weeks:
The results from Wily Mo Pena's MRI are back, and they reveal what many in the organization suspected yesterday. It is a Grade 2 strain of the left oblique. A club spokesman -- delivering the report from the medical staff -- said it was a "significant tear of the muscle," and it will "very possibly take four weeks" to recover. For now, he'll have a "very low level of activity" to allow healing to take place.
The problem with this muscle is that it's so central to the swing. Every time he moves, he's going to feel it. It's likely he can even feel a twinge when he breathes.

It's ok with me. He's a mediocre outfielder and a K machine at the plate. This will hopefully give a better all-around player a chance.
