Robert's 2025 Season Derailed Again by Lumbar Spine Injury
The Mets outfielder has appeared in just 49 games after missing significant time with a lumbar spine disc herniation, continuing a pattern of injury-plagued seasons.
Luis Robert Jr. has been limited to 49 games in his first Mets season after suffering a lumbar spine disc herniation. He is hitting just .215 with a .652 OPS. Robert has also been shifted from center field to left field to accommodate rookie A.J. Ewing's development. He acknowledged the season has been disappointing despite a full offseason focused on staying healthy.
