Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz broke his ankle Thursday in a fall outside a hotel. Spokeswoman Shannon Forde said Horwitz, with the Mets since 1980, will have surgery Monday.

The NIAFL will send a card. Perhaps.

Which writer pushed him?
 
Best wishes to Jay, one of the real pros.



(Waiting for BYH's shoe to come flying by).
 
Will he have to spend the first week of next season writing press releases for the Buffalo Bisons on a rehab assignment?

Best news: The Mets have three weeks to realize that Jay doesn't do a single ****ing thing. His worst nightmare come to life. This is why he never misses work: Not b/c he has no life (which he doesn't) but b/c being there everyday doesn't give anyone time to figure out how ****ing useless he is.
 
In NY tonight. Bruce Beck did a story on this on the NBC news after the football game. I really like Bruce, he's a great guy and very helpful to me when I was new, but as he was yukking it up and showing the spring training video, I thought of BYH steaming.
 
The update, per the Times' baseball blog:

<i>Jay Horwitz, the longtime spokesman for the Mets, fractured his ankle Thursday morning while walking to walk and will undergo surgery Monday.

Horwitz, 66, the team’s vice president for media relations, has been with the Mets since 1980, and over the years he has become one of the more familiar faces on the team.

The Mets said Horwitz, who lives in Clifton, N.J., stayed at a hotel near Citi Field on Wednesday night after the team flew back from Miami so that he could get to work more quickly Thursday, with the Mets scheduled to play a doubleheader against Atlanta, beginning at 4 p.m.

The Mets said Horwitz was at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York and would need at least two weeks of bed rest after his operation. Jason Isringhausen, who has known Horwitz since he was a young player in his first stint with the Mets in the mid-1990s, said some players would try to visit him over the weekend.</i>
 
The Mets said he would need at least two weeks of bed rest. Coming from the Mets, I'd expect Horwitz won't be ready by spring training.

The big question is who will return first, Horowitz or Ike Davis?
