NEW YORK (AP) -Carlos Delgado’s aching right hip is expected to sideline him for at least a few days, and the New York Mets plan to decide by Friday whether to put him on the disabled list.
Delgado was out of the lineup for the second consecutive game Tuesday night against Atlanta. He went to see a doctor during the day and was back at the ballpark before gametime, but the Mets did not expect to have a medical update until at least Wednesday.
The team is concerned about Delgado’s recurring hip injury. The slugging first baseman missed five straight starts before returning to the lineup May 4. He played seven consecutive games – with New York winning every one – but then sat out Monday night’s 8-3 loss to the Braves.
