Travis d'Arnaud partial torn UCL. Probably will need surgery miss the season.

Not surprising that the bad thing was going to happen to the Mets admist a good thing happening, as it always does. But, as brutal injuries and "bad Mets things" go, this is relatively manageable. Sucks for Travis who is made of absolute glass
--Concussion (May 2014)
--Fractured right pinky finger (April 2015)
--Sprained left elbow (June 2015)
--Strained right rotator cuff (April 2016)
--Bruised right wrist (May 2017)
--Partial tear of right elbow UCL (April 2018)

but he never quite lived up to his offensive potential anyway, and while he has shown flashes, especially the end of last year, he was platooning with Plawecki anyway ,and neither honestly is a huge producer- there's not much dropoff from d'Arnaud to plaw. However, Mets still are interested in JT Realmuto, so this may work well too.

The guy the Mets called up to replace d'Arnaud is prospect Tomas Nido, who has a fantastic arm. It should be nice to have one guy who can hit (maybe) and one who can throw runners out. We'll see.

Feel real bad for Travis though. I've met/talked to him and he's really nice.
