Fromt Rotoworld.com: While trying to ramp up his workouts in preparation for reporting to the Mets this week, reliever Kelvim Escobar felt a twinge in his shoulder. In other news, dog bites man. The Mets will proceed slowly with Escobar, who was just pointed out as a possible setup man by GM Omar Minaya yesterday. The oft-injured pitcher had surgery on his shoulder in 2007, missed all of 2008 while recovering, and pitched only five innings last year for the Angels. If he can get healthy enough to pitch this year, he'll compete with Japanese right-hander Ryota Igarashi for the setup role. That's a big if.Source: New York Times
