Inside The Park | Johan Santana Out For Season

Not that it really matters that much since the Mets' season is already shot, but ace starting pitcher Johan Santana is done for the season after finding bone chips in his elbow. He will require surgery, and should be ready to return by spring training next year.

Do you get the sense that the whole team is just quitting at this point? Not that Santana's injury isn't real or anything. But I can't help but wonder if the players have all started their offseason planning. Wagner is gone. Santana is gone. Wright still isn't back. No Reyes, no Beltrain, no Delgado. Who else do they have? The other night, Fernando Tatis was batting cleanup. I think he has 9 HRs this year. It's just crazy.
