The upcoming baseball season for the New York Mets got a setback with Sean Manaea‘s injury. This unfortunate event puts the team in a challenging spot regarding their pitching lineup, despite bringing on eight experienced pitchers during the off-season. Fans are now concerned and curious about Manaea’s health status, as he is an established player in Major League Baseball.
Here are all the available details about the 33-year-old pitcher’s latest ailment.
What happened to Sean Manaea?
It turns out that Sean Manaea has been dealing with a right oblique muscle strain, which means he won’t be able to pitch for the Mets on their opening day.
The problem became apparent when Sean Manaea arrived at the Mets camp. He reported discomfort in his right abdomen area but still participated in his usual bullpen sessions. Over time, the issue didn’t seem to get worse, yet it also didn’t improve. As a result, he decided to have an MRI scan last weekend to gain a clear understanding of any potential injuries hidden beneath.
The tests ultimately revealed the muscle injury, ruling Sean Manaea out for two to three weeks. Manaea expressed his frustration regarding his unfortunate condition, stating, “From my end, it’s very, very disappointing. I hate being injured. If I’m not out there pitching, doing my job, it sucks. I’m going to do everything I can to get there as healthy and as quick as possible.” (via MLB.com)
Despite the injury, Sean Manaea remains optimistic about his recovery, stating, “It’s better for me to sit out for a few weeks at the start of the season rather than pushing myself too soon and having to miss a larger portion of time later.” It is expected that Manaea will be back on the field by mid-to-late April.
Due to injuries, Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas are out of action, leaving just three confirmed starters for the Mets: Kodai Senga, Clay Holmes, and David Peterson. These three are strong contenders to fill in for the injured pitchers. Additionally, the Mets have Paul Blackburn, Griffin Canning, and Tylor Megill available as potential replacements if needed.
