The New York Met's dropped a 3-1 decision to the Washington Nationals in spring training on Saturday. Outfielder Mai Takman had to exit early after feeling soreness in his left knee, raising questions about his status heading into opening day. Manager Carlos Mendoza addressed the issue during an in-game chat, noting that trainers are checking touchman out right away. The team plans to share an update soon, but for now, it's all about caution with the 35-year-old. Fans and analysts are watching closely, since Takman was battling for a backup spot on the roster. This late spring setback could shake up his chances, especially as the Met's finalized their lineup. Takman joined the Met's on a minor league deal this offseason after a solid year with a Chicago White Sox. He hit well in 93 games, posting a 263 average with 9 home runs and 40 RBI's.
