Mets’ Jorge Polanco lifts second homer as rehab continues in Triple-A
Jorge Polanco is finding his power during his rehab assignment.
The slugging Mets infielder was back in action with Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday afternoon, and he lifted his second homer over the past three games.
That was Polanco’s lone hit across four at-bats, but it’s good to see him tapping into his power again as he continues working his way back.
The two-run blast came on a 1-1 sweeper in the heart of the zone, and he lifted it 360 feet to right.
Mets interim manager Andy Green said on Saturday night that the team has been encouraged by how Polanco has done coming back from his Achilles injury.
While he’s doing well, Green did say it’s still premature to target a return date yet.
The plan is for Polanco to play with Syracuse again Tuesday, then the team will see how he’s doing from there.
The veteran is expected to mainly handle DH duties upon his return.
