Ronny Mauricio Hasn't Resumed Baseball Activities
4 weeks agoNew York Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said on Wednesday that the rehab for infield prospect Ronny Mauricio (knee) has gone slower than anticipated and he has yet to resume baseball activities in October. It's concerning news for Mauricio, who initially had surgery in December of 2023 to fix a torn right ACL. The 23-year-old also need another operation this past August to remove scar tissue. There's still plenty of time this offseason for Mauricio to ramp up his activities, but having him be ready for the start of spring training in February may not be a lock now. The Dominican switch-hitter was hitting the ball very hard in 2023 before his injury and made his big-league debut, slashing .248/.296/.347 with two homers, nine RBI and seven stolen bases in 26 games. With Mark Vientos breaking out in 2024, Mauricio's best path to playing time in 2025 might be at second base.
