Another update from the Mets site:
Also delayed Monday was the expected release from the hospital of Mets catcher Brian Schneider. The plan now is for him to be released Tuesday.
Schneider's left thumb is infected, and though the Mets continue to say his condition is improving, his hospitalization was extended for a second time. General manager Omar Minaya said, for the first time, the origin of the infection probably was a blister. He also said the swelling is down significantly since Thursday, the day he was admitted into the hospital for special surgery in Manhattan.
A teammate who had been in contact with Schneider via text messaging said the catcher was to get some sort of new treatment Tuesday.
I hope Brian is ok. The talk of a staph infection is disconcerting.
Here's a minor update.
