Mets Jorge Polanco Placed on IL for Ankle Surgery

New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco's challenging first season with the team has likely come to an early end. The club announced on Wednesday that Polanco has been placed on the 10-day injured list.

This move comes as he is set to undergo surgery to address left ankle bursitis. The injury has been a persistent issue, impacting his performance throughout the current campaign.

His absence will undoubtedly be a blow to the Mets' lineup as they navigate the remainder of the season. Polanco's recovery timeline suggests he will not return to action this year.

The team will now need to adjust its roster and strategy to compensate for the loss of their experienced infielder.
