**West Sacramento, CA** – New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri left Saturday’s game against the Oakland Athletics after fouling a ball off his shin in the second inning. Siri, visibly in pain, was helped off the field and subsequently diagnosed with a leg injury. While X-rays were negative, Siri remains on crutches and is experiencing significant pain, according to Mets manager Carlos Mendoza.
Mendoza expressed concern that Siri’s injury could require a stint on the injured list (IL), a possibility he deemed likely given the outfielder’s current condition and inability to bear weight on his leg. Siri would be the sixth Met on the IL, joining pitchers Sean Manaea, Frankie Montas, and Paul Blackburn, catcher Francisco Alvarez, and second baseman Jeff McNeil.
Despite a slow start at the plate (1-for-20 with eight strikeouts), Siri has demonstrated his value on the basepaths with two stolen bases and five runs scored, including two impressive runs showcasing his speed. His defensive contributions have also been notable for the team. The Mets will continue to monitor Siri’s progress and determine the next steps regarding his treatment and potential IL placement.
