Over at his blog for the New York Daily News, Adam Rubin has updates on both Orlando Hernandez and John Maine.

Of Hernandez, he says that Duque will not be seen at Shea anytime soon

I’d say we won’t see El Duque ever again. I believe Dan Lerner recently reported that he had been seen with Moises Alou, never good if you want to stay healthy.

Of Maine, he writes that John will be skipped through the order, and will make his next start next Friday against the Marlins.

Nice to see Johnny getting better.

Finally, Manager Jerry Manuel isn’t counting out LHP Jon Niese for a spot start August 11th against the Pirates.

Thanks to Peter Wade for the link.
