Mets' Wilmer Flores: Could miss 1-2 games

X-rays on Flores' left hand came back negative Thursday, but he still may miss one-to-two games in order to recover, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.

Analysis:

Flores exited Thursday's game in the third inning after being hit on the hand by a pitch. X-rays revealed no fractures, but he was diagnosed with a left hand contusion. If manager Terry Collins opts to hold him out Friday, the recently recalled Ty Kelly or the veteran Kelly Johnson could be called upon to take over at third base.
