Clay Holmes fractured his right fibula, with surgery not ruled out but unlikely. Doctors estimate six to eight weeks of healing plus a ramp-up, suggesting an August return. The Mets are already dealing with multiple injuries and are weighing rotation options as they fill Holmes's spot.
Mets pitcher Clay Holmes fractured his right fibula after being struck by a Spencer Jones line drive, forcing him out for a long stretch. Holmes stayed in to finish the inning and was removed after walking Jazz Chisholm Jr.; an X-ray confirmed the fracture. The injury deepens the Mets’ rotation depth issues as Senga and Manaea have injuries or inconsistencies, with minors like Jonah Tong and Jack Wenninger considered for depth and Francisco Alvarez the only player with a defined return timetable (about two months).
