New York sports fans have seen a number of incredible athletes over the years, but a few of those careers were cut short by a string of brutal injuries.
It's been more than four months since David Wright pulled a hamstring and headed to the disabled list, leaving the Mets without their biggest offensive force, presumably, for 4-6 weeks. Roughly three months ago, Wright learned of his spinal stenosis condition and doubt arose about whether he'd ever be able to return to baseball.
There's still no official timeline but the Mets are hoping that captain David Wright could be ready to return to the team after the All-Star break in mid-July.
There is still no firm date for the return of David Wright and Travid d'Arnaud to the Mets lineup. Both are still rehabbing their respective injuries at a team facility in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
David Wright took batting practice on Wednesday for the first time since going on the disabled list earlier this month, however the third baseman has yet to begin base running drills to test his strained hamstring.
