It may be 2010, but the Mets have not left the medical miseries of 2009 behind in the old year. Carlos Beltran underwent surgery on his right knee in Colorado last night, apparently without the team’s permission. The prognosis for Beltran is that he may miss up to 12 weeks rehabbing from the surgery. That puts Opening Day in jeopardy, but also raises some important questions. How did it take this long to get Beltran the procedure he needed when he was placed on the DL seven months ago? And, if Beltran did indeed go ahead with the procedure without the Mets’ doctors permission, what does that tell you about the players’ faith in the Mets’ medical staff?
