Mets' Yoenis Cespedes: Could play Thursday if needed
Cespedes (wrist) could play in Thursday's game against Atlanta, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis:
Although not in the starting lineup, the Mets are saying Cespedes could substitute or pinch hit Thursday. The 30-year-old received a cortisone shot Wednesday which apparently improved his wrist enough where he could play if needed.
