Rivera has blood clot in right calf
ByWe have finally learned the nature of Mariano’s complication, to which his agent cryptically referred yesterday. Via basically every beat writer, he has a blood clot in his right calf. He stayed overnight in the hospital to get it taken care of, and is on blood thinners currently. This doesn’t change much in the long run; it just pushes back his surgery date a bit.
In other news, Mo revealed that he was leaning towards coming back in 2013, even before the injury. So much for all his actions being those of a man set on retirement.

He got the blood clot as a result of the injury, right? That would be freaky…
That would be my guess. It would be more freaky if the blood clot was unrelated, although maybe that’s what you meant?
It’s a good question, though, that I haven’t seen answered in the articles I’ve read so far.
Meant more as one of those “it could have killed him if left unchecked.” As in the injury saved his life deal.
The blood clot probably came from immobilizing his leg. It can also come from trauma to the veins in his legs.
So, the cyborg rumor…..just a rumor?
Nah. That clot is simply to cover for the fact that they don’t know how to operate on a cyborg.
No, it was really an “electron clot”, but they didn’t feel like explaining it fully to the public.
It wasn”t a clot, it was an outlet.
…and you think that was actually a clot. Bwahahahaha.
He’s actually multiplying.
If the clot was unrelated, than the injury was a blessing in disguise…
Oh man, blood thinners instead of just removing it?
I was hoping for the chance to acquire it at a Steiner Collectibles auction.
well done
Along with 4 tickets to Mariano’s operation and lunch inside his hospital room all for the affordable cost of $2000.
I think Mickey Mantle’s liver is still out there somewhere.
tossed it out the window three minutes hot
hit the rastaman and he said “blood clot!”
rip mca
In other words……..lupus.
Duh. Its always lupus.
Just keeps getting better and better….sweet Jesus, get better Mo.
Fuck that’s scary.
Blood clots are sometimes dangerous. Any blood clots in the body should always be evaluated by the doctor. ;`.,:
