Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
More good news:
David Wright joined a cast of the walking wounded in Mets camp. The Mets sent [Wright] to New York to have his left rib cage examined, and likely have an an "ultrasound-guided cortisone shot," GM Sandy Alderson said. Wright is one of several Mets, including outfielders Scott Hairston and Kirk Nieuwenhuis, who have suffered from rib cage/oblique issues this spring, leading the Mets to adjust some of their training routines. "You better believe it's troubling," Collins said. ... "This didn't happen twenty years ago." In response, Collins has ordered his players to put more effort into stretching exercises, make sure to stay hydrated, and reduce the amount of swings taken during batting practice.
