That ankle sprain that
Felix Hernandez suffered at Shea Stadium last Monday is taking a little too long to heal for the Mariners' liking. So the young ace is going to take some extra time off and
take a trip to the disabled list, keeping him out for at least another week.
Hernandez was examined by team physicians Monday as the Mariners returned from a nine-game road trip. Manager Jim Riggleman said nothing significant was found, but since Hernandez was going to miss his next start anyway, the team decided to give his ankle a few more days of rest and put him on the disabled list.
"His landing foot is still not really right, (and) we're not going to put him out there till it is right," Riggleman said.
At 31-51, the M's would be silly to let King Felix get out of bed until he's at full strength. Until then, Hernandez can
close his eyes and keep dreaming about that grand slam off
Johan Santana.
