NEW YORK (AP) -- Gary Carter's health has taken a turn for the worse.
The 57-year-old Hall of Fame catcher, diagnosed last May with a malignant brain tumor, received results of his latest MRI exam Thursday, according to the online journal of his daughter, Kimmy Bloemers.
She writes "I wish I could say that the results were good. ... There are now several new spots/tumors on my dad's brain. I write these words with tears because I am so sad for my dad."
Carter had the MRIs Friday in North Palm Beach, Fla., and they were sent to his doctors at Duke University for evaluation.
A day earlier, he fell at a doctor's appointment and completely tore a rotator cuff, Bloemers wrote, adding that he also fell on Christmas Eve.

Anybody have any thoughts on an R.A. Dickey extension? Is he worth a 2-year $26M extension. He's a knuckleballer, so age shouldn't be as much of a factor, but then again he's not a traditional one. How long is that "power knuckleball" going to last? That's what made him so great this year. His previous two seasons weren't too shabby either though.

I think the money is a bit high, but he did win the Cy Young, and two years isn't bad, esp considering they are still paying Bobby Bonillia
