BOCA RATON, Fla. -- New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson will undergo an unspecified medical procedure this week and will not attend the general manager meetings that run through Thursday at the Boca Raton Resort & Club, assistant GM John Ricco said Monday.
Alderson requested that the specifics of the procedure remain private for now, according to Ricco.
"He had a medical procedure that was scheduled for after the season ended," Ricco said. "Because of the playoff run, it got pushed back, and kept getting pushed and pushed -- obviously for good reason. And so he was going to have it done this week.
