Mets\' Carlos Carrasco Breaks Pinkie, Done For Season 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Sep 6, 2023 10:55 am

Carlos Carrasco broke his right pinkie finger in a weightlifting accident and will miss the rest of the season, New York Mets manager Buck Showalter said.

Carrasco, 36, was lifting weights before Sunday\'s game against the Seattle Mariners when he set down a 50-pound dumbbell and it flipped over, landing on his pinkie.

He had surgery the same day to set the bone and a follow-up procedure on Tuesday to insert a pin.

\"He\'s going to be fine to pitch again next year,\" Showalter said. \"By the time he\'s ready to throw, he should be OK.\"

He wasn’t okay to pitch this year, considering the results of his starts.
