MINNEAPOLIS — The Mets have one center field option for an expanded stretch after testing revealed he had a fracture of his left tibia on Monday.
Siri went through an MRI test and a CT scan on the SIN as his first X-ray was negative on Saturday.
Ciri stained the ball from his shins and forced him to leave Saturday’s game. He has been on crutches ever since, as he couldn’t put weight on his legs.
“I didn’t think it was too serious to get a fracture,” Ciri said through an interpreter after a 5-1 victory over the twins on the target field.
Siri said he has not received a schedule for recovery.
Tyrone Taylor shares the center field work with Siri and receives most of his playing time, but the team has a variety of options.
Lessangeracúnya, who played center field in the minor leagues, could be.
“Mendy said that if he needed me at Center Field, he would be ready,” Accña said through an interpreter to refer to his manager, Carlos Mendoza. “It’s my job to prepare for all situations.”
Mendoza said the Mets had not made a decision on how to fill Ciri’s roster.
Siri arrived in offseason trade with the Rays, bringing Gold Globe Caliber defense to position along with the speed of the base. Offensively, Siri has struggled for most of his career. He had a 0.050/.208/.100 start this season with 24 plate appearances.
“We feel good about what’s here,” Mendoza said. “Tyrone Taylor will have many opportunities, we’ll prepare [Jesse] Turn signal gets more [Starling] Marte. We are pleased with the depth of the outfield. It’s a shame for Siri, but we like what we have here. ”
According to Mendoza, following the recent MRI exam, he resumed throwing after two weeks of layoffs, following the recent MRI exam.
The left-hander rehabilitating from the diagonal tension he sustained in February will still need to accumulate spring training.
According to Mendoza, missed all of his rehabilitation from surgery last season for ACL repairs, and will receive his first game action as DH from Tuesday, 2023.
According to Mendoza, Jeff McNeill will remain at Single A St. Lucy in a tense, oblique rehabilitation before heading to Triple A. Syracuse until Thursday.
Francisco Alvarez’s rehabilitation stint will move to Double A Binghamton in place of Triple A Syracuse on Tuesday, Mendoza said, as originally planned due to weather concerns.
Alvarez played three games for Single A St. Lucy last week and began rehabilitation after surgery on a broken Hamate bone in her left hand.
Paul Blackburn is scheduled to hold his second live batting practice session on Tuesday to rehabilitate from inflammation in his right knee.
Mendoza said the goal is to accumulate right-handers on the 65-70 pitch before returning from the injured list.
