| Player Notes |
| December 5, 2006 The Cubs may sign Cliff Floyd and platoon him with Matt Murton in left field next season, according to the Chicago Tribune. Floyd is believed to have the Cubs on the top of his list of teams to play for. |
| October 22, 2006 Cliff Floyd is scheduled to undergo surgery Wednesday to repair his ailing Achilles tendon, according to Newsday. He expects to wear a boot for the following for three months. "I'll probably use spring training to get ready for the season, instead of coming to spring training ready," Floyd said. |
| October 18, 2006 Cliff Floyd returned to action last night as a pinch-hitter, though he grounded out. Afterward, he said "it felt like nine months" since his last at-bat, according to the New York Daily News. Floyd, who is battling a sore Achilles tendon, predicted that Endy Chavez would start in left field again tonight. However, Floyd said he would again be available to pinch-hit. |
| October 17, 2006 Cliff Floyd said yesterday that he has improved since having to leave Game 1 of the NLCS after aggrevating his Achilles injury, according to the New York Post.

| October 10, 2006 Cliff Floyd tested out his injured Achilles Tuesday by running the bases and working out in the outfield, according to the AP. Floyd favored his left leg during the workouts, but he might be healthy enough to play in the NLCS. "He had a nice little workout," manager Willie Randolph said. "I'm optimistic it will work out fine. We have time to wait, see how he feels when he gets up tomorrow morning. We don't anticipate any setbacks or anything like that, but might as well take the opportunity to wait and see before we make a decision on that." Even if Floyd is on the roster, it seems possible that he would not start, which would open a spot in left field for Endy Chavez. |
| October 10, 2006 The Mets will likely know Cliff Floyd's status for the NLCS after a workout today, according to the New York Post. GM Omar Minaya said he "won't know about Cliff until he goes out there [today] for the workout and we get a feel for where he's at." Floyd, who is dealing with an Achilles tendon injury, would be replaced in the starting lineup by Endy Chavez. His roster spot would be filled by either Lastings Milledge or Ricky Ledee.
