The New York Mets received some positive news regarding the injury of one of their most important players for the 2021 season. Pitcher Carlos Carrasco, who came from Cleveland via trade with his friend Francisco Lindor, will soon report to the team’s alternate training site to start doing some fielding drills, according to Anthony DiComo.
The Mets lost Carrasco, who is currently 34 years old, to a torn hamstring on March 18. He was recovering from a bout of right elbow soreness that he said was normal for him during spring training, but the high-grade hamstring tear put him out for at least six to eight weeks.
