Sanchez feels a "Pop" in his shoulder

SANCHEZ UPDATE http://njmg.typepad.com/springtraining/2007/03/sanchez_scare.html#more
The initial assessment was that it scar tissue and adhesions from the surgery, which included adding a piece of his hamstring over the shoulder, tearing. But Omar Minaya said that while that appears to be the problem, if it does not respond well in the coming days that the team will then send him for an MRI.
Sanchez believes that will not be necessary.
“I just felt a tingle all the way down to my hand,” Sanchez said. “Nothing major. It’s not a ligament, not a tendon, nothing like that.
“I set myself back today because I don’t want to risk everything that I’ve been doing for another two weeks. I set myself back and (will) relax for today and see what happens tomorrow.”

"New York Mets reliever Duaner Sanchez felt a pop in his right shoulder Thursday and cut short his first bullpen session in eight months after 11 pitches."

"Another reliever, Juan Padilla, won't throw for two weeks after experiencing soreness in his surgically repaired right elbow"


The Mets might be getting a little bit worried right now.. So far they have 4 locks in there pen. And The rest of the guys consist of a guy who had a 5+ ERA for the royals (burgos) a guy run out of Atlanta (Sosa) a rookie who hasn't played a full year in the minors (Smith) and a guy with an inifiti era (Urdaneta)

3 of these guys unless Park/Sele beats out Sosa for the LR spot in the pen will make the team.

Now I don't think its that bad of a problem but if Sanchez, and Padilla aren't going to be back until lets say Mid May, with Mota out 50 games (suspension) the main 4 in the pen might get overworked...
