4 years agoNew York Mets outfielder Albert Almora Jr. (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday following a hard collision with the outfield wall in Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. He was forced to leave Tuesday's game and was able to walk off the field in his own power. X-rays came back negative on his shoulder and neck. Notwithstanding the positive X-ray news, Almora has some posterior shoulder pain and, as a result, he was placed on the IL. In a corresponding move, the Mets called up outfield prospect Khalil Lee. Kevin Pillar should be the team's primary center fielder at this point while Brandon Nimmo (finger) remains on the IL. That said, Nimmo is scheduled to return within the next few days.--Nick Ritrivi - RotoBaller
