Mike Pelfrey will undergo Tommy John surgery today in Alabama, a procedure that could mean the end of his nondescript career with the Mets. The recovery period will take up to a year, which would eclipse the December date a team has to tender contracts. With Pelfrey to make $5.6 million this season for a handful of starts, the Mets will probably not tender a contract and allow him...

Is This the End of Mike Pelfrey’s Tenure with the Mets?

As it is looking more and more like a certainty that Mike Pelfrey will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the rest of the 2012 season, it is time to wonder if the start that Pelfrey made on April 21 was the last time that we will see him in a New York Mets uniform.

Did new delivery cause Mike Pelfrey’s injury?

Mike Pelfrey’s disastrous Spring has not gone unnoticed by Mets fans and apparently New York’s front office has not exactly been blind to the 28-year-old’s struggles either.  According to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports, “The Mets would like to trade Mike Pelfrey, sources say.” Sources suggest the Mets aren’t enamored with Pelfrey’s salary (no...
