Grae Kessinger's Hamstring Injury: Mets' Depth Tested

New York Met's Reserve Infielder, Gray Kessinger, faces a long recovery after suffering a left hamstring injury during spring training. The 28-year-old is expected to miss at least 8-12 weeks of action. Manager Carlos Mendoza shared the update on Sunday, noting that Kessinger left Friday's win over the St. Louis Cardinals in the 8th inning after. Grounding into a force play, surgery remains a real possibility as they evaluate the damage. Kessinger joined the Met's last month on a minor league contract, aiming to earn a spot on the roster. This setback comes early in camp, testing the team's depth at infield positions. He last appeared in the majors in 2024 with the Houston Astros playing 23 games but going zero for 21 at the plate. That limited experience highlights his role as a depth player.

1:00The Met's will monitor his progress closely with no firm timeline yet on surgery or rehab. Spring training rolls on without him for now.
