Billy Wagner is due back early next week and there is strong speculation that he will not work as the closer right away, instead working his arm back into the role. Jerry Manuel has showed in Wagner's absence that he is willing to change closers like socks, so my gut says Wagner can be pitching in the ninth quickly if Luis Ayala suddenly remembers that he is Luis Ayala. But this...

Billy Wagner already has thrown a bullpen session today, and feels ready at this point to face hitters Sunday, in what is expected to be a simulated setting at Shea. He said he gets stiffness, which is understandable and fine, but the elbow inflammation is gone. While the original estimate for activation was Tuesday, Wagner conceivably could wait until next weekend’s series against Atlanta....

Wagner started short, then worked long, looking pretty darn smooth throughout. There seemed to be no hesitation on Wagner’s part - a great sign for Mets fans. Wagner has nursed a [...]

Billy Wagner, the $43-million setup man? That's what manager Jerry Manuel suggested Friday if the Mets can't get him into a minor-league rehab game before Wagner is healthy enough to return. With every other level done for the season, the only option is Class A Brooklyn, which finishes Saturday but is likely to have a first-round playoff game Monday.

Wagner, sidelined since early August by a swollen left elbow and strained left forearm, plans another bullpen session of about the same number of pitches tomorrow. He then is expected to make a minor-league rehab appearance Saturday or Sunday with Class-A Brooklyn. If Wagner continues to pitch without pain, he could rejoin the Mets in the next two weeks."This is encouraging because he...

... Taneli Tiikkaja continues his charge, and just took out overall day one chip leader Andre Wagner. After a miserable start to the day, Wagner was short-stacked and committed the last of his chips with Ad-Jd on a flop of 6c-10d-3d, drawing against Tiikkaja’s pocket queens. There was no ace or diamond to save Wagner as his APPT Macau dreams became an unfinished symphony. Another...
