You couldn’t blame any of the healthy players left on the New York Mets roster if they steadfastly refused to take the field. With the way this team seems to be cursed, it’s only a matter of when—not if—they’ll be struck by the injury bug.
MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand shared the team’s update on some of its wounded early this morning, and the news isn’t good.
Leading the way is David Wright, who is set to undergo right rotator cuff surgery on Tuesday. It’s just the latest setback for the 34-year-old, who hasn’t played at all in 2017 and has a total of 75 games under his belt since the start of the 2015 season.
