Mets: Sean Manaea would start season on the list of injured
Sean Manaea suffers from the right oblique
The New York Mets left -handed pitcher, Sean Manaea, has been out of action for a few weeks due to a straight oblique distension and will probably start the season in the injured list, said the manager Carlos Mendoza on Monday.
“He simply stagnated,” said Manaea, who has been dealing with the problem since the beginning of spring training. “The worst part is that it never improved in recent weeks.”
Manaea, who is projected as the number two starter of the team, had a 12-6 record with an effectiveness of 3.47 with 184 strikeouts with the METS in 2024, which led him to sign a three-year contract for $ 75 million in December .
He said he had been launching and launching, but that “recovery really hasn’t been the best on the way.” A magnetic resonance was made during the weekend.
“The good news is that the tendon is not affected, the rib cage is not affected,” Mendoza said about the results of magnetic resonance. “It’s just a muscle, so it will be off for a couple of weeks … and then we will evaluate it again. We have to put it again. It is safe to say that the season will probably start in the list of injured. Once That is free of symptoms, will begin to launch. “
Manaea lowered the position of his arm mid -season to emulate an important left -hand , with a 6-2 record and an effectiveness of 3.09 in its last 12 regular season games.
It is the second injury in the rotation of the METS openers after the right Frankie Monta was out of play for six to eight weeks on February 17 when suffering a high -degree muscle distension.
Kodai Senga, Clay Holmes and David Peterson will lead the rotating of the METS at the beginning of the season. Paul Blackburn, Griffin Canning and Tylor Megill will compete for the last two stalls until Manaea and Moves return.
The METS have also lost the infielder Nick Madrigal for a prolonged period after he suffered a fracture in the left shoulder during Sunday’s spring training game against the Washington Nationals.
Madrigal, who is fighting for a position in the roster, fell to the ground while threw at first base after making a clean hand play, on a shot. Originally, a dislocated shoulder had been diagnosed, but subsequent tests revealed the fracture in the shoulder that contrary to the one to launch.
Mendoza told journalists that Madrigal, who signed a one -year contract with the METS in January, will undergo a computerized tomography and will be out of action “for a long time.”
