Mets' Polanco to Undergo Ankle Surgery, Season Likely Over

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco has been placed on the 10-day injured list and is expected to undergo surgery on his left ankle, effectively ending his challenging first season with the team. The decision comes as a result of persistent pain that has hindered his performance.

The New York Mets announced Wednesday that Jorge Polanco was placed on the 10-day injured list due to left ankle bursitis. Interim manager Andy Green revealed that Polanco is scheduled for surgery in the near future.

Green explained the reasoning behind the decision, stating, “It’s gotten to the point where he just can’t get freedom from the pain.” This pain has evidently prevented Polanco from playing effectively, leading to the need for surgical intervention. The announcement was made before the series finale against the San Diego Padres, signaling the end of Polanco’s 2023 season.
