Thread: Giants place Benitez on DL, again.

    Your attidute needs adjustment. It can happen.

    Guys have injury problems for a long time and then all of a sudden they do fine. Let's hope this is one of the situtations this time (finally).

    Benitez can definitely come back from this. Just two years ago he was the best closer in the NL, even in games that counted. This injury had nothing to do with his hamstring. I just don't want him rushed out there when Worrell is doing a good job as a fillin.

    I like Worrell! Lets leave him in the closer roll until he proves he can't do it.

    Armando Benitez (knee) has lost 15 pounds since being placed on the DL.
    Losing the weight will help alleviate some of the stress on Benitez' knees, but he still weighs 250 pounds. That is a lot of torque!
    Let's hope he continues to lose weight like he did when he came back last year.

    I would still like to see Worrell stay in the closer role! I know that will not happen but one can hope!

    Well at this point that might not be a bad idea. I didn't realize that Benitez was so heavy. No wonder he can't stay out of the trainer's room. We'll see soon how this shakes out!
