UPDATE: Turns out Grudz is just day-to-day with knee soreness. The Mets deny any rumor that they’ve traded for him. Two Royal false alarms today, sorry about that.
A friendly emailer tells me that Royals second baseman Mark Grudzielanek was in the original lineup, but was scratched at the last minute. Joe Girardi says he may be headed to the Mets. We’ll keep you posted. And now back to my sweet n’ sour chicken.
And an update on Reggie Sanders: according to Girardi, Reggie was just shipping his kids’ stuff off to Arizona, where they’ll go to school. False alarm.
