Update: X-Rays on Cano negative following hit-by-pitch
By8:59pm: MLB just announced that x-rays were negative, in case you didn’t believe Rosenthal. It’s officially a right quad contusion.
8:48pm: Ken Rosenthal hears Cano was hit more on the quad than the knee and that he is expected to be fine. Ex-frickin-hale.
8:27pm: Robinson Cano left tonight’s All-Star Game after taking a 97 mph Matt Harvey fastball to the right knee in the first inning. He stayed in to run the bases at first, but left after one batter. Stay tuned for updates.

Countdown to Spring Training
Just 2 months and 2 days 'til pitchers and catchers report!
Who the hell in the organization opened an umbrella indoors after breaking a mirror?
while walking under a ladder, stepping on a crack and kicking a black cat?
gotta be a bad joke.
Yeah I know this is just as likely to happen in any other game, but right now, fuck the fucking all star game.
FWIW, it was a 96 mph fastball, not 97.
Is there anything more fitting to the season than this? Just figures…
fox radar said 97
No it didn’t. The first pitch he took high was 97. The one that hit him was 96. I have it DVR’d.
You guys must both be dyslexic because it saw actually 69 hpm.
WHO CARES!?
If you’re going to report a number as a fact, then it should be the right now.
The difference isn’t a big deal, but accuracy should matter if you’re reporting it that specifically.
No need to argue about it
We weren’t arguing, at least to me. You were the one who came in with the all caps reply.
*right one.
The wind gusted from the south at 7 mph at the time of the pitch delivery. Although the release of the pitch was at 101 mph, by the time it approached Cano the wind resistance slowed the rate to 96.49999999999991.
The Fox crew rounds up anything over .01 to the next highest as TV ratings improve with faster pitch speeds.
Discrepancy explained.
If he’s out any length of time, just start looking to sell.
Too bad he would have been the best piece to sell :/
No. Kuroda is the best piece to sell, especially for a team that’s looking to go for it.
You’re probably right; he’s a legit ace in a pitching-starved world.
Seriously. Especially if Kuroda has a NTC.
How much could they get for you?
And I felt like he was legitimately in the running for MVP this year, especially if the Yankees made the playoffs and he rode some feel-good vibes for ‘carrying a losing team’. It’ll suck if he never gets one.
Somewhere Ben Kabak breathes a sigh of relief.
+1
Ehh the MVP voting has become a joke of late. As for this year both Chris Davis and Miggy would have to cool down a considerably for him to win.
Ugh.
Thing is, I laughed to myself how Kuroda not making the team was a godsend because of injury concerns and then BOOM this happens. You figured the team would have had Cano wrapped up in bubble wrap with the way the season has become…
I wasn’t watching, the pitch that hit him…was it a wild pitch or what?
No. It was an inside pitch. that just kept running inside. Harvey was amped up in that first inning.
It ran way in, hit him squarely in the right (front) knee.
someone needs to find that voodoo doll fast. Call the body guards to protect Mariano
Cashman must have texed Leyland .
Boras just answered Jay Z’s rap….. Cano you coming with me…. boras’s response…. Harvey making sure cano limpin to jigga!!!! Jigga who??? Jigga what??? We need to take out harpe in response!!!!!
How exactly does taking out Harper, a star for the Nationals, hurt the Mets?
Not the mets…… Boras!!!!
Harper
Got to rub some HGH on that knee.
DIAF
Not surprised he’s fine. Walking back to the dugout like he did was very reassuring.
I could not be more depressed now
Gardner
Ichiro
Wells
Hafner
Almonte
David adams come on back up
Nunez
Stewart
Cruz
Wow
That is sad even with Cano.
mmmm-hmmm
Didn’t look to me like the quad, more like the leg on the outside of the knee, but whatever it’s kind of scary. Hope it’s just bruised.
He’s going to be okay? Christmas in July.
Looked real bad, if it swells he will miss some games.
MLB just announced that x-rays were negative, in case you didn’t believe Rosenthal.
What if we don’t want to believe MLB given their recent track record of almost bribing people to give them the answers they want? Did they offer the x-ray technician a raise for a promising diagnosis?
