This weekend’s forecast calls for rain for much of the east coast. Not only is it raining near where the New York Mets call home, it’s also raining injuries on the franchise.
And by raining, I mean pouring.
Jeurys Familia has become the latest Met to be added to the injury report, diagnosed with an arterial clot in his shoulder. He’ll visit Dr. Robert Thomspon, the same doctor who performed thoracic outlet syndrome surgery on Matt Harvey last summer. While surgery hasn’t been officially announced, it’s certainly on the table. Should Familia miss an extended period of time, it’s possible that the Mets could be in the market for a new closer.
