According to Metsblog, here, K-Rod has been placed on the disqualified list and will not be paid until he is able to play again nor will he pick up any service time (this one I picked up from SNY's news scroll during the game - probably will affect contract options). This is coming after a successful surgery on K-Rod's thumb, which was messed up during his altercation with his kids' grandfather.
Not a bad move...
To me, this looks like the Mets are testing the waters here. I think this makes more sense, and seems more reasonable to pass, than if they tried to void his contract altogether. Although I bet the Union is still pissed and will definitely do something to try to get K-Rod paid, at least the Mets are trying to do SOMETHING about this ridiculous situation.
I still think this whole situation is retarded...by the way...
