Something finally went right for Robinson Cano in his first season with the Mets.
His torn left hamstring, which was initially believed put his season in jeopardy, has healed faster than most expected. Now the veteran second baseman may have a chance to make an impact for the Mets when it really matters.
Cano played seven innings at second base for Single-A Brooklyn on Saturday night in Coney Island, going 2-for-4 at the plate, and expects to rejoin the Mets in the nation’s capital on Tuesday for their series with the Nationals after another game with the Cyclones on Labor Day.
