The team isn't particularly forthcoming with what the exact procedure entails. Here is my understanding gathered from Boston media outlets (which may not be 100% correct):

Curt's tendon is literally wripping away from the ankle bone. The problem is getting worse as the days go on. When the tendon moves it causes him great discomfort. He will need surgery on the ankle after the post season.

To keep him on the mound, team doctors have been using a medical technique where the tendon is actual sutured to the skin to keep it from moving. There is a very unusual technique for them which required them to practice on cadavers.There is a possibility that he may experience an infection or even a career halting injory if he continues to pitch. He has decided that pitching for Boston in the post season is more important than the rest of his baseball career.

They also use a pain killer injected into the ankle to deal with any excruciating pain. He doesn't like too much pain relief or he can't feel the ankle causing him to improperly push off the mound while throwing. Prior to his last start the doctors tried 4 sutures but decided to go with only 3 after Curt woke up in pain the next day. The blood you see oozing through his sock is caused by the sutured tendon pulling against the skin.

Re: RED SOX FOR TEH WIN!!!

I have to say that being in ATO, a big MIT sports frat, for an overnight during Game 2 was amazing... 5th floor, huge window with 60" tv in front... and Fenway 1/2 a mile across the river (in plain view). You could hear the national anthem and the crowd's roar.

Go Red Sox!

Re: RED SOX FOR TEH WIN!!!

Im sooo crying right now. The best tradition in all sports history is gone. I dont know what to do.

I mean congrats to Theo Epstein and all, ive heard about him since he was 21, this guy is amazing, ive never seen as good a mind like his, well Billy Beane(but he doesnt have the money). I wish him the best of luck in his career.

I love boston but hate the sox, they always beat the A's and now the Yanks, but well congrats to the Sox, they more then deserved it, esp for that comeback win. I can be happy that they won, but still it will fill odd without the whole edge year in and year out that the Yanks have.

All i can say now is-free agency starts in 7 days, expect pavano and beltran in a Yanks uniform next year.

edit-i just still cant get over the Epstein thing, he is my role model, and has been for a while, hopefully he makes a book now, and i can make my dream of being a GM come true. I really think he is the reason they won. The mientkiewicz and cabrera deal was genius really, it fit their needs perfectly, and they did beat the best teams in baseball to get here. So i must say-this is a great day for sports.

i really thought DePodesta would beat him out in winning a WS-being as they are both apart of the Beaniac society. The whole moneyball idea is how ive been preaching sports to my friends since grade school. build a team around stats and how they perform together, not star power, its more about how they mold together as one, and push each other to succeed; which is exactly what FIRST is about, and why i love it.
