Tom Glavine doesn't know what's wrong, but will get CT scan tomorrow.
Tom Glavine's health and his season are in jeopardy, a potentially crushing blow to the pitcher as well as to the Mets' World Series ambitions, the Daily News has learned. Sources said the southpaw has experienced coldness in a finger on his pitching hand, and that the cause of the alarming condition isn't yet known.
The 287-game winner is scheduled for a CT scan tomorrow, while an angiogram is planned for Wednesday.
Doctors are unsure whether the problem is related to a blood clot or possibly a "knot" in an artery near his left shoulder. Depending on the diagnosis, Glavine could miss little time or the rest of the season. The "knot" could require invasive surgery, while a clot might be able to be dissolved and limit the time lost.
Reached last night, agent Gregg Clifton said he could confirm that "diagnostic tests" are planned for this week, but he declined to elaborate. Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz said he was unable to provide any details and would not even acknowledge a medical issue. A teammate aware of the situation was similarly tight-lipped when asked if he could speak about how Glavine is doing, saying: "I would get in a lot of trouble for that."

Grote, I mentioned it before, but will say it again, El Duque was the biggest pickup for the Mets this year. Nobody in baseball has a bigger pair of balls on him. He is one of the toughest guys in a big game you will ever find, and the Mets are extremely fortunate to have him. I wont miss a game he pitches in ,he is still my favorite pitcher in the game today.

Agreed. I just hope he can stay fresh enough to start and pitch this well in the postseason. He's had some issues with stamina over the past couple of seasons and he's on pace now to pitch more innings than he has in any season since 2000.
