According to MLB.com’s Marty Noble, the Mets are concerned about Billy Wagner’s left shoulder. During the 10th inning of today’s game Manager Jerry Manuel went out to visit Wagner who described the discomfort in his shoulder “like a cramp” and “as a little tight”. So, tomorrow Wagner will have a MRI in NY to find out what is giving him discomfort in his left trapezius muscle.

Jerry Manuel said:

“We want to know what was keeping him tight. It was 120 degrees. … I was loose.”

Billy Wagner said:

“My shoulder’s a little tight…I hope I don’t have to spend that much time in the city…I’m old — I’m supposed to hurt…I should hurt more often…It seems fine now…It wasn’t that bad. When Jerry came out, I thought it was for someone else…It doesn’t seem bad. If it is, I’ll miss the first game [of the Phillies series], and if we’re winning by more than three, that won’t matter.”
