After running, fielding grounders and playing catch yesterday, David Wright took some swings off a tee in the cage this morning for the first time since a strained left intercostal muscle caused him to withdraw from the World Baseball Classic last week.
Wright said that he felt no pain during his workout and still hopes to be ready for Opening Day. Mets general manager Sandy Alderson indicated to Marc Carig of New York Newsday that he is cautiously optimistic about his progress.
?I?m glad it?s a goal,? Alderson aid. ?Is it realistic? Yeah, I think it?s realistic. I don?t think there?s any certainty, but it?s realistic.?
If Wright needs more time, the Mets could go with either Justin Turner or Zach Lutz at third base. Further complicating matters is that Daniel Murphy is also working his way back from an intercostal strain. If both Wright and Murphy are sidelined at the start of the season, it?s possible that Jordany Valdespin could play second base.
