NEW YORK -- Pitcher Kane Davis of the New York Mets had surgery on his right elbow Monday and will miss the rest of the season.

Kane, a right-handed reliever, was 1-1 with a 7.07 ERA in 16 appearances. He walked 11 and struck out 24 in 14 innings.

The 26-year-old last pitched for the Mets on May 12, when he gave up a game-winning home run to Colorado's Larry Walker at Shea Stadium. He was put on the 15-disabled list the next day with a strained lower back.

The Mets said Davis is expected to resume baseball activity in six months following the surgery to repair the flexor tendon and ulnar nerve.

I'm sorry any time someone has to have surgery, but it's not like he's been missed.
