NEW YORK -- New York Mets infielder Andres Gimenez and catcher Tomas Nido were placed on the injured list for undisclosed reasons Tuesday, hours before the Mets were scheduled to resume play following a five-day shutdown after a player and a coach tested positive for the coronavirus.
In addition, third base coach Gary DiSarcina and bench coach Hensley Meulens are also away from the team for undisclosed reasons.
The Mets have said they will not identify their players and staff members who test positive for the coronavirus. General manager Brodie Van Wagenen said Monday that the player and coach, who tested positive Wednesday, developed symptoms but are feeling better.
