Trainer's Room: Injuries in 2018

[nymr83]

Ramos getting his shoulder looked at, hopefully they find an explanation beyond "he sucks"

[Edgy MD]

This morning I suddenly remembered the Mets have a guy at AA named Yoenis Céspedes. He's 2-4 in two games so far with both of his hits being doubles.

He's only played two innings in the outfield thus far.

[ashie62]

I hear he likes it in Binghamton though

[ashie62]

Any new updates on Thor or Cespedes?

Rest?

60 day DL?

[Guest cooby]

They are both on my fantasy team. I’m sick of them both

[Zvon]

Bruce. Back. Day to day as of now but talk of DL.

[Guest cooby]

There are six cats in my house. There are two in the yard. Some of them are ailing.

My son and his wife have eight cats , some of which are ailing.

My daughter and her family have two cats, both of which are, frankly , elderly (one from chester county,pa, streets which makes her tommie Agee tough as hell)

Ladies and gentlemen, your new and improved New York Mets

I Wish

Looks like Ramos is having surgery and is done for the season.

Cespedes I think was starting to slowly ramp up.

no word on Thor yet but he was getting coffee in Denver on Monday so she's still with the team and not in PSL.

[ashie62]

Hoping Cespedes gets back quickly so that he can be traded

[ashie62]

So much for him running "soon"

I don't know if this is so debilitating at this point or is Ces just jakin it?

Is he insured?

[Edgy MD]

I'm having a tough time being positive about Nimmo's hand.

I'm trying to get past it by finding a way to love Kevin Kaczmarski, but I'm not there yet.

[ashie62]

I am concerned about Nimmo & Noah

[G-Fafif]

Nimmo MRI OK, termed day-to-day.

Take that as you will.

[Edgy MD]

With any luck, we'll have the smilingest pinch-runner in the division.

[MFS62]

TJ Rivera off the DL and at DH for St. Lucie tonight.
Heal fast, Homey!

Jason Vargas was clearly beyond the simple and lowly skills of the New York/Penn League, throwing six shutout innings for The Cyclones against The Staten Island Yankees, giving up a lone single while walking none and striking out nine.

The Clones offense and pen were happy to help prepare him for his return to the Mets by giving him just a 1-0 lead to depart with and then blowing it in the bullpen, losing 2-1.

It was something of a reverse of the previous day, a 2-1 victory over the Yankees also featuring another encouraging start by a rehabbing Mets pitcher, with Noah Syndergaard going five innings, giving up one run on two hits, walking one, and striking out seven.

[G-Fafif]

Syndergaard on track to start Friday night vs. Nats should his Wednesday bullpen go well.

Bruce's hip had a setback (it realized it was attached to Bruce). Jay will be shut down for ten days.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Any slim hope of trading Jay Bruce before July 31 is becoming even slimmer.

[Vic Sage]

when was that a hope?

2016.

It's been MY hope, albeit not a reasonable one.

[seawolf17]

Bruce has two more years left. He's not going anywhere.

[Edgy MD]

Well, he could be traded for somebody else's he-has-two-years.

[Centerfield]

Bruce can be traded until August 31. Not a chance in the world he wouldn't clear waivers.

If he leaves either by trade OR waiver claim, Zei gezunt. (Be well! Goodbye! Farewell)

[Centerfield]

In the end I feel like we are going to be stuck with him. Even if he gets back and starts producing, I don't see any team taking on his salary for the remaining 2 years based on just a few good weeks.

I guess we can hope that he kills it for the entire second half, but even then with all the talent available in the offseason I don't see anyone taking him on.

Part of what makes it difficult to contend in 2019 is the money already committed to Bruce, Vargas and Anthony Swarzak.

[ashie62]

Todd Frazier broke down again. Oblique. That should be a month

[Edgy MD]

And T.J. Rivera pulled from his first rehab game with elbow pain.

Crap!
I was wondering why they pulled him out of the game.
Hopefully, its just some scar tissue/ adhesions doing their normal post-surgery thing.
