Mets activate center fielder Jose Siri from 60-day injured list after his recovery from broken leg
Jose Siri returns to Mets' lineup after a five-month recovery from a broken tibia, expected to improve center field defense and baserunning amid team's postseason push.
- Jose Siri was activated Tuesday from the 60-day injured list and started in center field, batting ninth against the Philadelphia Phillies nearly five months after his injury.
- A slow healing process meant Jose Siri fractured his left tibia in mid-April and delayed a late August rehab assignment until recovery progressed.
- Known for prior power and speed, Jose Siri went 1-for-20 before injury, despite Tampa Bay Rays 2023-24 production of 43 homers and 26 steals.
- Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said they cleared space by optioning Jared Young, outrighting Justin Garza, and designating Wander Suero, planning to 'play the matchups' with Siri against lefties.
- Siri's return positions the New York Mets to address center-field OPS.601 struggles as they held a three-game wild-card lead over San Francisco Tuesday night.
