Luis Robert Jr. Returns From Lengthy Injury, Still Finding His Footing
The Mets outfielder is just two games into his comeback from an April injury, showing rust at the plate but flashing power with a 451-foot homer.
Luis Robert Jr. has returned to the Mets lineup after missing time since April due to injury. In his first game back he went hitless with three strikeouts, and in his second game he went hitless in three at-bats before hitting a 451-foot home run off Bryse Wilson. The Mets and Robert himself acknowledge he is still shaking off rust. His return is recent enough that performance volatility and lingering effects remain a real consideration.
