Minor League Injury Updates: Reese Havens Found, Jeurys Familia MIA

5

Reese Havens made his season debut yesterday for the St. Lucie Mets after missing most of April with a strained oblique. I'm guessing his assignment to St. Lucie is temporary and related to his rehab and the warm weather (though upstate New York probably feels about as close to Florida this weekend as it ever does) rather than the level of competition. Expect him to join the Binghamton squad in the near future. He was 1-3 with a walk. Of course, the news wasn't all good, as Jeurys Familia missed his scheduled start for the PSL Mets in the same game. No news yet on why he was unable to appear. Elsewhere, Fernando Martinez hit a homer in his first AB back in the Buffalo Bisons lineup after missing a handful of games with a sore back. Update: According to Toby Hyde via Twitter, Familia has been placed on the St. Lucie 7-day DL with a left wrist burn.
