The Major League Baseball's official website "MLB.com " reported on the injury situation of Brooks Raley, the left-hander of the New York Mets, on the 12th (Korean time).
Reilly, who had been struggling to recover after his injury in mid-April, will meet with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Keith Meister on May 15 to decide whether he needs Tommy John surgery or internal brace surgery to end the season, the media said.안전놀이터
Reilly pitched as a relief pitcher in eight games this season, recording an ERA of 0.00 WHIP (base-plus-slugging percentage per inning) with two hits and three walks in seven innings with one win and four holds. He was a key bullpen for the Mets.
However, he was listed in the IL ahead of the game against the Los Angeles Dodgers on April 22. His elbow pain was a problem.
"Initial MRI showed no structural damage. However, as the swelling continued, Dr. Meister asked for a second opinion," MLB.com said. "Now he is concerned about elbow ligament damage and bone spurs."
Reilly is well known to KBO League fans as well. He joined Lotte Giants in 2015 and played for five seasons. After playing in 152 games during five seasons in the KBO League, he re-entered the big league stage after 48 wins, 53 losses, 910 ⅔ innings, 755 strikeouts, and an ERA of 4.13.
After joining the Cincinnati Reds in 2020, he moved to the Houston Astros during the season. He pitched in 58 games for Houston in the 2021 season and marked an ERA of 4.78. In the 2022 season, he joined the Tampa Bay Rays and recorded one win and two losses, 25 holds, six saves and an ERA of 2.68.
Since then, Reilly has joined hands with the Mets. He had a good record of 1-2 with 25 holds and three saves and an ERA of 2.80 with 61 strikeouts in 54 ⅔ innings in 66 games in the 2023 season. He continued his streak of zero ERA in eight games this season, but his elbow injury has put him on the verge of being out for the season.
"MLB.com " said, "Riley can become a free agent after this season, so his life at the Mets may end with a season-ending surgery."
