Jorge Polanco’s first season with the New York Mets ends after he undergoes surgery following a year disrupted by injuries. One report says he had already missed a substantial portion of the season with a right wrist contusion, limiting his availability and playing time.
Other coverage characterizes the season as broadly troubled by health issues and notes that the Mets also plan to proceed with ankle surgery, describing it as part of the conclusion to his first year with the club. Together, the accounts indicate Polanco’s time with the Mets is marked by ongoing physical problems that affect both his ability to play and his readiness moving forward.
The outlets differ in emphasis and the specific body part highlighted at season’s end—wrist versus ankle—but they align on the overall point that Polanco ends his first Mets season with surgery after missing meaningful time. The reports present the surgery as the next step in addressing his injuries rather than an immediate return to action.
