		Floyd had an ultrasound of his kidneys Thursday, while the Mets were losing to the Houston Astros here, 3-2.

		If Floyd were to hit 20 home runs, steal 15 bases and hit.265/.355/.450 all season, then the decline in his performance from 2005 to 2006 would easily be offset by the addition of Carlos Delgado and the improvement at first base.
		Floyd's gradual improvement followed by his gradual decline lends credence to this, and it's more likely that he will fall back into this gradual decline from his 2003 and 2004 numbers than either gradually declining from or, even less likely, holding steady with his 2005 numbers.
