Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

[Centerfield]

Any word on Cano?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

[G-Fafif]

Luis Avilan joins Justin Wilson and Jeurys Familia in the Injured Lists's bullpen. Chris Flexen is up with the big club for some reaason.

[G-Fafif]

In addition to Vargas's mild hamstring tightness, Matz is back in NY being examined for nerve irritation in his left arm.

[bmfc1]

Good thing Brodie signed Keuchel as a precaution... oh wait.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, I'm guessing Matz mitzes a start and Vargas hits the DL at least briefly.



That DL trip opens a up a spot for Font, and Oswalt probably gets at least one start in there, which may well be a good thing.

[Centerfield]

I don't think its a good thing.

[G-Fafif]

Vargas to DL, Oswalt back.

Wilson off DL, Peterson down.

[Edgy MD]

You still say, "DL"?



What are you — racist?

I heard Eddie Coleman refer to Citi Field as Shea Stadium during a pregame show last week and sort of enjoyed how familiar it sounded, but yeah, ingrained habits are hard to break.



IL. The aforementioned transaction was the IL. No disrespect intended to the differently abled.

[G-Fafif]

Matz goes on IL, Smith returns.

[G-Fafif]

Wilson back to IL with recurring left elbow soreness, Hanhold up.



Familia expected to re-emerge tomorrow.

[Lefty Specialist]

I don't want Familia pitching with anything less than a 5-run lead for the foreseeable future.

[G-Fafif]

Lugo to IL with shoulder tendinitis. Hector Santiago will be joining us.

[G-Fafif]

Cespedes stepped in a hole, fractured an ankle. But damn he was good in 2015.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

He stepped in a hole all right, a whole load of bullshit

[G-Fafif]

Cespedes and Harvey were coming back from Duaner Sanchez's place for Dominican food on Cinco de Mayo.

[G-Fafif]

Conforto's been symptom-free for three days, so that's not bad.

[G-Fafif]

Lowrie's on the 60-day IL. Could be 600, Brodie might as well add.

[batmagadanleadoff]

I bet Cespedes is at least 40 years old.

[MFS62]

Nicely played.

Later

[G-Fafif]

Nimmo to IL with that stiff neck of his. Rajai Davis up.



Sewald DFA'd.

[G-Fafif]

With all that has defined the Mets' past week, it can almost be overlooked that they have added five players to the injured list, all of them significant elements of the team. That can't be good.

[RealityChuck]

And now two more...



http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/26806209/mets-lose-mcneil-struggling-cano-injured-listMets lose McNeil, struggling Cano to injured list.

[MFS62]

As I mentioned in the Binghamton thread, Ruben Tejada is back in the organization, and is hitting well in AA.

Hey, he's only 29 years old and it seems like a lifetime since his injury.

Wouldn't it be poetic justice if he came back and led the Mets to the World Series?

And after he drives in the winning run, he could face the tv cameras, give the one finger peace symbol and say, "This is for you, Chase Utley!"



Later

[G-Fafif]

Cespedes has had ankle surgery, announced as out for the rest of 2019.

[G-Fafif]

Conforto allegedly to return Saturday or Sunday.

[ashie62]

Nimmo, bulging neck disc, no surgery, no timetable



Dom Smith, go get it!

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo was apparently punched in the neck by Fman.

[ashie62]

I wanted an extra OF ''with a resume" in the preseason. Not too late if Nimmo is out 2-3 months
