Mets RF Jeff Francoeur had the long awaited surgery on his left thumb Monday. The in season trade acquisition tore the collateral ligament in the thumb while making a catch on August 23rd. He played with the injury thru the final 6 weeks of the season, displaying toughness for a team that had little to play for. The surgery was performed by Gary Lourie in Atlanta. Francoeur should be ready to start Spring Training, according to reports.
