Neil Walker injury and suspension

  • • Marlins designate Nick Wittgren for assignment
    The Marlins announced that they’ve designated right-hander Nick Wittgren for assignment. His roster spot will go to veteran infielder Neil Walker, who signed a one-year contract with Miami this evening. It registers as at least a moderate surprise to see Wittgren cut loose, as the right-hander pitched to a 2.94 ERA with 8.3 K/9, 4.0 BB/9, 0.27 HR/9 and a career-best 46 percent ground-ball rate in ...2019

  • • Shohei Ohtani sprains ankle in Angels’ loss
    Shohei Ohtani would hit another home run for the Los Angeles Angeles last night, but the fun would end there. Not only would the Angels lose 4-3 in extras to the Yankees, Ohtani would limp off the field during the fifth inning while running out a groundball.

And the biggest thing with Walker is his injury history.But last season, despite playing in just 111 games, he would put up solid offensive numbers—hitting...2018

    The New York Mets have a ton of holes to fill this offseason. Last year’s fire sale at the trade deadline has left their roster incredibly weak at key positions, especially on the infield. Outside the injury-ridden David Wright, the Mets lost first baseman Lucas Duda and second baseman Neil Walker in salary-dump trades. They have also not yet chosen to re-sign shortstop Jose Reyes. As of right now...2017
