Bruce's Journal

Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

Mets play it safe by Placing Jose Reyes on the Disabled List

In 2009 Jose Reyes suffered an injury and returned to action too early. As a result he aggravated the injury and missed most of the season. I am glad that the Mets are playing it safe this time by placing him on the disabled list after he sprained his hamstring. I am sure he will be re-evaluated very carefully after the 15 days are up.

I really hope that the Mets sign Reyes after this season. Losing him would be almost as bad as losing Tom Seaver in 1977
