Yoenis Cespedes, Noah Syndergaard Sent For Tests

“So we’ll see what happens and see what’s going on”. Asdrubal Cabrera went 2-for-3 with two runs scored during an impressive all-around day for the Mets.

Outfielder Yoenis Cespedes also departed in the same sixth inning Wednesday with what ultimately was diagnosed as a mild sprain of his left wrist.

“If you remember last fall he [Cespedes] had a similar problem with that left hand”. “So I don’t know what the issue is”. Bartolo Colon departed that game with a bruised right thumb after four pitches. Syndergaard was removed after the top of the sixth inning because his right elbow “flared up”, as Collins put it. “That’s why I took him out of the game”.

Verrett, who turned 26 on Sunday, began the season with the Mets and was 3-4 with a 4.02 ERA in 19 games (four starts).

Syndergaard was prescribed anti-inflammatory medication and clearned to resume his normal routine. The Mets are getting odds of -190 to win, while Kansas City has a money line of +175 to win.

The St. Louis Cardinals won 4-3 to put themselves in position to sweep their first trip to Chicago since last year’s NL Division Series, though it won’t be easy with the major league-leading Cubs sending reigning NL Cy Young Award victor Jake Arrieta to the mound.

ASTROS 3, ANGELS 2 Carlos Correa hit a two-run single to right-center field with no outs in the ninth inning and host Houston rallied for a victory over Los Angeles. Cespedes had been 2-for-2 with a double and a walk before his departure.

RANGERS 6, REDS 4: Cole Hamels struck out eight in six solid innings and Prince Fielder had a two-run single as Texas won at home. Addison Reed pitched the eighth, setting up Jeurys Familia for his major league-leading 24th save.

Second base umpire D.J. Reyburn (70) signals a home run as Kansas City Royals third baseman Cheslor Cuthbert (19) trots the bases during the fifth inning of an interleague baseball game against the New York Mets, Wednesday, June 22, 2016, in New York.

Reynolds’ only outfield game experience had come in one Cape Cod League game before turning pro.

That left NY scrambling when Colon was injured early.

Cabrillo grad Danny Duffy got the start for the Royals but took a no decision. Of course, he also earned New York’s lone World Series victory last October and irritated the Royals by firing his first pitch above Alcides Escobar’s head.

Colon delivered in the playoffs for the Mets a year ago as he came out of the bullpen and pitched in the setup role.

Utility player Ty Kelly was demoted to Triple-A Las Vegas, leaving the Mets down a bench player.

Royals: After a day off Thursday, their second in four days, the Royals play another opponent they dispatched during the 2015 postseason.
