Xady Watch - Week of May 29
Not a lot of activity for everyone's favorite player, Xavier "Who?" Nady. He sat out much of this week with back spasms, an ailment that seems to be going around the Mets locker room. Looks like they'll all need to stop sleeping with each other. Boys, just because you play in Queens doesn't mean you have to be queens. There's nothing wrong with boys sleeping with boys, of course, but we need the team to be healthy.
Anyway, the Mets had a solid week in spite of Who's absence. Even with limited playing time, Who's batting average dropped yet again, to .267, still fourth among everyday players (behind Wright, LoDuca, and Beltran) and eighth among all Mets, who have gotten some solid play from the reserves. A special shout-out to Julio "Methuselah" Franco, who is currently batting .300, which is roughly his age.
No home runs this week by Who, and he remains stuck in single-digits at nine.
Step it up, Who! Too many weeks like this one and you're gonna force me to eliminate a weekly B&E feature.

Thanks for all the Mets coverage, dude. They actually look like a real team. But let's see where they are at the All Star break.
Did you happen to hear NPR's All Things Considered yesterday, oh bald one? Robert Siegel and Baseball America's Alan Schwartz dumped all over the Kansas City Royals.
Here is some news:
NEW YORK -- The Mets placed outfielder Xavier Nady on the 15-day disabled list on Tuesday and recalled outfielder Lastings Milledge from Triple-A Norfolk of the International League.
Nady underwent an appendectomy on Tuesday at approximately 5:30 a.m. at New York Presbyterian Hospital. Nady should be able to resume baseball activities in seven to 10 days.
Interesting back pain.
