Let’s check in on a few injury updates from around the league…
- Jed Lowrie does not appear anywhere near a return for the Mets, as his left side hip and hamstring are both causing him some pain, tweets Deesha Thosar of the NY Daily News. The Mets maintain that Lowrie will play this season, but there’s no timetable for him to begin a rehab assignment. Given that Lowrie’s initial injury was a left knee capsule strain, it would seem Lowrie’s rehab has become a complex and dynamic healing process.
- Trey Mancini returns to the lineup after nursing a sore elbow after getting plunked by Chris Bassitt of the A’s, per MLB.com’s Joe Trezza. Mancini, 27, is the Orioles likely all-star and best trade chip as of right now (.304/.361/.558), but he may also be their best chance to stop their current 9-game skid.
- Good news for the Arizona Diamondbacks as Ketel Marte’s injury appears minor. He is day-to-day for now with a left groin cramp, tweets Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. Marte’s health is crucial for the Diamondbacks if they are to stay in the hunt for the Wild Card. They are 2.5 games back entering play today, largely driven by Marte’s .309/.359/.586 season, his 20 home runs already 6 more than his previous career high.

Where is the international free agents kid the Mets signed last year. I think his name is Francisco Alvarez. He was like the top catcher in the class I think they said. But I have not heard of him since they signed him last year, does anybody know where he is playing at?

He’s listed as their #12 prospect, but he’s not on either of their DSL rosters.
Means he’s either hurt or going directly to the GCL, which happens sometimes. GCL doesn’t start til Monday, so I don’t know if he’s there.

The kid could be Cespedes’ caddy this summer. The Mets north shore golf team has quality pairings with the Jed Lowrie “all 2 B” team (with Robbie cano being his partner and aces needed a
Mobile partner to work the shinnicock hills course.
