FML....New York Mets infielder Daniel Murphy is hitting .320, good for ninth best in the majors this season. But now the 26-year-old is likely done for the season.
The New York Times reports that Murphy was spiked Sunday by Jose Constanza during a steal attempt in the seventh inning of the Atlanta Braves' 6-4 win and Murphy injured his knee.
The Times notes, "the injury to his left knee could be serious enough to end his season."
The Mets were without the services of shortstop Jose Reyes for most of the game as well. He "pulled his left hamstring while running out a grounder to lead off the bottom of the first," the Times reports, and "felt a twinge as he sprinted down the line and appeared to slow awkwardly as he reached the bag."
GM Sandy Alderson said after the game, "We'll wait for the M.R.I. and decide what to do next," according to the paper.
