May 1, 200322 yr Yeah, I just read that too when I was on ESPN.com. Really sucks for him and the D'Backs. I wish him luck in surgery and hope the guy is ok. He is a great pitcher.

May 1, 200322 yr Yes, this is yet another example (as if any was needed) of why JR is such a smart little man in respect to refusing to sign great pitchers in their 30's to long-term deals- sure, they maybe be really good for 5-7 years, grab a Cy Young or 4, perhaps even play a huge part in winning the coveted, elusive WS....but at the end man, I tell you, those damn aging knees are gonna throw down a reality check, dreams shattered...for at least 3 more weeks.
