Mejia tears right elbow MCL

From the Mets…

Righthanded pitcher Jenrry Mejia was examined today by Mets Medical Director Dr. David Altchek and was found to have a complete MCL tear of the right elbow.  Mejia underwent an MRI at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan.  Surgical treatment has been recommended, but Mejia is expected to seek a second opinion.

Err on the side of caution here, Mets.

Do everything possible to keep this man healthy.
