A somewhat concerning injury update was provided on New York Mets All-Star Starling Marte late last night.
Opening Day availability for Mets’ Starling Marte will be determined in early February:
Marte, who underwent core surgery in November, will not be playing in the World Baseball Classic. The Mets have still not figured out whether Marte will be a full go for the start of Spring Training or a rehabbing player.
