Jose Reyes, whom the Mets expected back on Friday, was pulled from his extended spring training game today. He will fly to New York City to see team doctors to re-evaluate his calf injury.
Update – 5:30 p.m.: Jerry Manuel was just on WFAN and said Reyes could return Tuesday if all goes well. I wouldn’t hold my breath, Mets fans. Not much has been going well in the injury department as of late.
Oh, you thought the Mets were just getting good injury news today with their star players? Ha!
Reyes, who hurt his calf nearly two weeks ago, stayed on the roster as he tried to recover from the injury on his own time. The Mets opted to put him on the DL and were ready to welcome him back on Friday.
Alex Cora and Wilson Valdez will likely continue to split time at shortstop.

Meanwhile, in other shortstop news, Bart Hubbuch just tweeted that Ramon Martinez will need surgery on his dislocated pinky and will be out at least six weeks.
I’d be scared if I was anywhere near the Mets team right now. Cover yourself in bubble wrap or something.
