Mets Send Jesse Winker for MRI After Back Injury
New York Mets designated hitter Jesse Winker exited the first game of a doubleheader against the Orioles due to back tightness, just two days after returning from a two-month injured list stint for an oblique strain. After his first plate appearance, Winker's back 'locked up,' prompting the Mets to send him back to New York for an MRI to assess the injury's severity. The team has stated they will be cautious with Winker, and his timeline for return is currently uncertain. This setback compounds the Mets' designated hitter issues, as Starling Marte is also sidelined with a bruised right knee. With both veteran DHs injured, Mark Vientos and potentially Ronny Mauricio are expected to get more playing time. Winker's recurring injuries pose a significant challenge as the Mets seek to stay competitive in the NL East.
