Port st. Lucie, Florida and Spring of the Maladies in New York Mets goes away: Infielder Jeff McNeil is the last one who is hit on the shelf and is diagnosed with an inferior right slant load that brings him to the injured list to start the season. McNeil is expected to be missed at least three to four weeks.
McNeil felt the injury after playing on Monday for the last time, and the Mets ordered an MRI when the pain did not dissolve until Wednesday.
McNeil is closed by baseball activities at least seven to ten days before it is re -evaluated. Weird strains can be difficult injuries in which attempts to return too early can often lead to worsening.
In the second half of the last season, McNeil also missed the time with a broken right wrist, which stopped the swing, which he created with two strong months after the all-star game. McNeil completed the Spring training to take it “super seriously” and use it as a springboard to the regular season.
Almost 20 percent of the expected opening of the MET will begin the season on the injured list. McNeil enters Sean Manaea, Frankie Montas and Francisco Alvarez as key pieces that are not ready for the club's kick -off on March 27th. The player, who would have entered McNeil, Nick Madrigal, is already on the road for the season after having asked for an operation on a broken shoulder.
“At the beginning of the camp we always talked about our depths,” said manager Carlos Mendoza, “and here we are tested.”
Madrigal injury opened a place for a unit of care, and McNeil opens another. The four candidates for these two places are Brett Baty, Luisangel Acuña, Donovan Walton and Luis de Los Santos. After opening the second basis, Baty will see a long time in a position that he just started last summer. He starts on Thursday in the second base and probably again on Friday.
“What we saw so far was good,” said Mendoza. “Every time we have a chance, board will get more look there.”
Baty has by far the best offensive spring of this four and appears on Thursday with 10 goals in 27 bats. Acuña has stung the ball recently after a slow start to the camp, and Walton hit a Grand Slam on Tuesday.
In other, more positive injury messages for the METs, Brandon Dimo has been back in the line -up for the first time in almost two weeks. GEIMMO had dealt with a painful right knee that required an injection.
In addition, the youngest MRI from Manaea came back cleanly, and the left -hander resumed on Tuesday. Since he was closed before he had built up at the beginning of spring, Manaea has had to go through pretty much spring training of about six weeks to be ready for games.
