Mets Activated Church and Placed Nixon on DL
Jon Blau of Mets.com reported that the Mets activated Ryan Church as expected. To make room on roster, the Mets placed Trot Nixon on the 15-day DL on Sunday with a left groin strain. I was unaware that anything was wrong with Nixon. According to Jerry Manuel, “He played as hard as he could, battled as hard as he could. It limited him somewhat, but he would never mention that it did. He just wanted to play, so hopefully this will give him a chance to heal and rest up a bit.” I guess that’s why I didn’t know anything about it. Let’s hope that Trot comes back healthy.
