Ketel Marte was placed on the Injured List today with left wrist inflammation. Manager Torey Lovullo said that he didn’t find out about the injury until a couple of days ago.
After yesterday’s game he went to get an MRI and saw Dr. Sheridan the hand specialist. Torey’s discussions with the medical team lead him to believe it’s still possible to for him to return before the end of the year, but they will evaluate again in 10 days.
Ketel wasn’t sure exactly when he hurt it, and does not recall any particular swing. When asked whether or not this was a lingering injury that had been bothering Ketel for a while Torey said:
“Not for me, it hasn’t gotten to me on that level”
I found this response, and the previous response about just finding out about the injury two days ago curious.
