6 years agoNew York Mets outfielder Jay Bruce has been on the 10-day disabled list since June 18 due to a hip injury. He would be first eligible to come off the disabled list on Friday when the Mets take on the Miami Marlins, but he won’t be ready for activation yet. Frankly, the more time Bruce can spend out of the lineup to clear his head, the better he’ll probably end up being. He’s slashing a putrid .212/.292/.321 (.613 OPS) with only three home runs on the season while dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot and the hip injury. He could use the mental break as much as he could use the physical one.--John Smith
