Jed Lowrie's knee hurts. Will have an MRI.

smg58 Feb 20 2019 01:35 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Well that didn't take long.

Frayed Knot Feb 20 2019 01:36 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

My right elbow hurts. I think maybe I have a bone chip (or seven).

Johnny Lunchbucket Feb 20 2019 01:50 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

There is nothing more disheartening then seeing a newly added guy injure himself during Spring Training. It is the shortest route to ruin.

Centerfield Feb 20 2019 02:12 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Is this the record for "new guy hurts himself"? What are, we one week into spring training?

A Boy Named Seo Feb 20 2019 02:20 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Ah, he's only gonna be 35 in April. I'm sure everything's gonna be just fine.

Edgy MD Feb 21 2019 06:23 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Is this the record for "new guy hurts himself"? I feel like Scott Erickson, apart from coming up injured while warming up for his debut, also got hurt at the top of his first (and only) Mets camp. Brandon Nimmo has reportedly been held out of practice with shoulder soreness.

Centerfield Feb 22 2019 07:27 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Good news for Lowrie. Nothing structural. They'll bring him along slowly.

G-Fafif Feb 23 2019 10:28 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Diagnosis is left knee capsule sprain. Opening Day probably Jedless. Good news is if Lowrie's out long enough, getting him back will be like "adding a Jed Lowrie" at the deadline. Or "with the Lowrie insurance money added to that from Wright and Cespedes, the Mets could be in position to significantly add to payroll in 2020..."

G-Fafif Feb 26 2019 06:54 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Todd Frazier has an oblique strain. Will get a cortisone shot. No timetable for return, increasing the chances that when he does recover, "it will be like adding a Todd Frazier at the trade deadline." https://twitter.com/AnthonyDiComo/status/1100389916503171072?s=19

How long til Cano pulls a something?

Brandon Nimmo dealing with bad reaction to chicken he didn't thoroughly cook. Only the Mets, huh? Or anybody, actually.

Benjamin Grimm Feb 28 2019 07:09 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Despite spending the night puking his guts up, I'll bet Nimmo never stopped smiling.

MFS62 Feb 28 2019 07:26 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

(channeling Fmann) He would have been better off just choking his chicken. Later

RealityChuck Feb 28 2019 08:54 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Brandon Nimmo dealing with bad reaction to chicken he didn't thoroughly cook. Only the Mets, huh? Or anybody, actually. Every team has an instance of this every season. Usually they just call it "stomach flu," which isn't a thing.

A Boy Named Seo Feb 28 2019 09:58 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

He's from Wyoming. He prob just likes his chicken medium-rare.

G-Fafif Mar 04 2019 01:07 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Amed Rosario hit in hand by pitch in Red Sox game, leaves game, goes for x-ray.

G-Fafif Mar 04 2019 02:47 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Rosario's x-ray negative. Also, Nimmo's back from his virus that it has been confirmed was not chicken-related.

Benjamin Grimm Mar 04 2019 02:54 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

=G-Fafif post_id=3782 time=1551736062 user_id=55] Rosario's x-ray negative.

The problem is, we've learned that that doesn't mean anything. Kevin Plawecki had a negative x-ray last year and he missed six weeks. (I'm totally guessing at the amount of time here.)



There were other examples too, but Plawecki is the one that comes to mind.

G-Fafif Mar 04 2019 05:06 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Callaway expressed non-concern, though that could also not mean anything.

Centerfield Mar 08 2019 10:55 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Lowrie getting better. From Matt Ehalt: Infielder Jed Lowrie (left knee) hopes he can begin baseball activities soon while Todd Frazier (left oblique) took ground balls for the first time Thursday since being sidelined. “Making good progress," Lowrie said. "Hopefully with a little bit of testing and making sure things are progressing well, I can begin baseball activities soon.” Lowrie has been participating in lower-half exercises that he described as low impact. He did not want to speculate on whether he'll be ready for opening day. “I'm looking at what I can do today because I think the focus has to be on getting this right so there's not a recurrence," Lowrie said. https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/mlb/mets/2019/03/07/carlos-gomez-excited-back-ny-mets-where-his-career-started/3086855002/

Reliever Drew Smith returning to New York to have his "sore right elbow" checked out.

Edgy MD Mar 21 2019 06:26 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Lee Mazzilli spent the night in the hospital after taking a batted ball off the noggin in Tampa. Hopefully he comes out OK.

Wilson Ramos leaves last PSL game when, while catching, he takes a pitch off a couple of fingers on his right hand.

Luis Avilan joins Justin Wilson and Jeurys Familia in the Injured Lists's bullpen. Chris Flexen is up with the big club for some reaason.

G-Fafif May 05 2019 03:12 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

In addition to Vargas's mild hamstring tightness, Matz is back in NY being examined for nerve irritation in his left arm.

bmfc1 May 05 2019 03:19 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Good thing Brodie signed Keuchel as a precaution... oh wait.

Edgy MD May 06 2019 11:26 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Yeah, I'm guessing Matz mitzes a start and Vargas hits the DL at least briefly. That DL trip opens a up a spot for Font, and Oswalt probably gets at least one start in there, which may well be a good thing.

Centerfield May 06 2019 11:54 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

I don't think its a good thing.

G-Fafif May 06 2019 06:35 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Vargas to DL, Oswalt back. Wilson off DL, Peterson down.

Edgy MD May 06 2019 07:06 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

You still say, "DL"? What are you — racist?

Matz goes on IL, Smith returns.

Wilson back to IL with recurring left elbow soreness, Hanhold up. Familia expected to re-emerge tomorrow.

Lefty Specialist May 11 2019 02:35 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

I don't want Familia pitching with anything less than a 5-run lead for the foreseeable future.

G-Fafif May 20 2019 01:19 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Lugo to IL with shoulder tendinitis. Hector Santiago will be joining us.

G-Fafif May 20 2019 02:06 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Cespedes stepped in a hole, fractured an ankle. But damn he was good in 2015.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 20 2019 02:09 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

He stepped in a hole all right, a whole load of bullshit

G-Fafif May 20 2019 02:10 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Cespedes and Harvey were coming back from Duaner Sanchez's place for Dominican food on Cinco de Mayo.

G-Fafif May 20 2019 02:11 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Conforto's been symptom-free for three days, so that's not bad.

G-Fafif May 20 2019 02:19 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Lowrie's on the 60-day IL. Could be 600, Brodie might as well add.

batmagadanleadoff May 20 2019 02:53 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

I bet Cespedes is at least 40 years old.

Nimmo to IL with that stiff neck of his. Rajai Davis up. Sewald DFA'd.

G-Fafif May 23 2019 08:46 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

With all that has defined the Mets' past week, it can almost be overlooked that they have added five players to the injured list, all of them significant elements of the team. That can't be good.

RealityChuck May 23 2019 08:54 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

And now two more... Mets lose McNeil, struggling Cano to injured list.

MFS62 May 23 2019 09:15 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

As I mentioned in the Binghamton thread, Ruben Tejada is back in the organization, and is hitting well in AA. Hey, he's only 29 years old and it seems like a lifetime since his injury. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if he came back and led the Mets to the World Series? And after he drives in the winning run, he could face the tv cameras, give the one finger peace symbol and say, "This is for you, Chase Utley!" Later

G-Fafif May 23 2019 01:36 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Cespedes has had ankle surgery, announced as out for the rest of 2019.

G-Fafif May 24 2019 02:29 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Conforto allegedly to return Saturday or Sunday.

ashie62 May 26 2019 06:47 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Nimmo, bulging neck disc, no surgery, no timetable Dom Smith, go get it!

Edgy MD May 26 2019 07:01 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Nimmo was apparently punched in the neck by Fman.

ashie62 May 26 2019 11:16 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

I wanted an extra OF ''with a resume" in the preseason. Not too late if Nimmo is out 2-3 months

Edgy MD Jun 04 2019 09:33 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

So, Dom Smith got bumped from the lineup over a hyperextended thumb on Sunday. The Mets sent him for an MRI, which they don't intend to release until they meet the media before tonight's game. Robinson Cano being close to ready to come off the IL may make the prospect of IL-ing Smitty appealing, though it shouldn't really be.

Edgy MD Jun 14 2019 06:07 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Further neck pain delays any return for Nimmo. Congratulations are in order for Mike Barwis. Your kill count may be going up, Mike.

G-Fafif Jun 14 2019 09:38 PM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Gsellman didn't pitch a second inning because of a stiff back.

Fman99 Jun 15 2019 05:17 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Nimmo & Cano were both in the lineup last night here in the 'Cuse. I'm hoping that's still the case today since we have tickets and all.

G-Fafif Jun 16 2019 08:43 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Cano is active. Syndergaard is going on the IL.

Frayed Knot Jun 16 2019 09:07 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Except that Cano isn't all that active even when he's active.

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 09:39 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

Noah on the 10 day IL, MRI pending. This takes the wind out of me I hope Travis d'Arnaud is not the last man standing in that trade

G-Fafif Jun 16 2019 11:59 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

We are down to eight Mets who have been on the active roster every day of 2019: Ramos Alonso Rosario J. Davis Lagares Wheeler Diaz Gsellman

Nimmo shut down. Same bulging disc in his neck. Will see a specialist. I would have thought he'd have already seen a specialist. Ugh.

I guess a Bennett Lesion is some sort of bone spur? I'm guessing that they'll need surgery to shave that down eventually. I wonder if Familia really is pitching hurt, or if this is an excuse to let him find himself.

Like I said in a different thread, my guess is it winds up like Bruce last year, where he winds up missing two months but comes back essentially normal. I'm inclined to doubt he could pitch this poorly without an injury.

McNeil going for the MRI. Said the hammy felt like a “snag”. He's supposed to say it was nothing, rub some dirt on it and double four times.

MFS62 Aug 14 2019 04:57 AM Re: Resuming Baseball Activities - Injuries 2019

I guess its too much to expect that when I open this thread, there will be something about Cespedes or Lowrie. Sigh Later
