Reliever “Duaner Sanchez”:http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=6948 underwent shoulder surgery at New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery. Mets Medical Director Dr. David Altchek inserted a screw in the coracoid, a small bone in front of his right shoulder to repair the hairline fracture.
The timetable is 6-8 weeks to recover from the surgery followed by a rehab program of another 6-8 weeks.
The team also said reliever Juan Padilla’s right elbow will be examined by Dr. Altchek tomorrow.

To NYM (RE: Dave Williams)
He’s out of his neck brace, but not yet throwing. The last timetable I heard of him was June before he’s back on the mound.
