According to David Lennon of Newsday (something I don't read regularly, so I'm surprised I caught this article early), Daniel Murphy's right knee injury has been diagnosed as a grade one MCL sprain. Apparently, he will be out for the next 2-6 weeks.
Mike Jacobs and Fernando Tatis (or Chris Carter or Ike Davis. Ike Turner for all I care) are supposed to platoon in his absence. I like Jacobs, but that's from experiencing his amazing first week as a Met. 4 homers in his first 4 games as a Met is pure Captain Awesome. As Ian constantly reminds me, he is no Carlos Delgado (although Delgado himself right now would be no Delgado) He's a low average, decent obp hitter with power. He's a legitimate #6 hitter.
His defense is suspect. Then again so is everyone else mentioned in this article. So, in the end, I must say. . .
Daniel who?
