Injury Notes: Colomé, Nance, Mets

By Darragh McDonald | August 13, 2022 at 5:21pm CDT

The Rockies announced that right-hander Alex Colomé has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to right lateral epicondylitis. Fellow righty Justin Lawrence was recalled to take over Colomé’s spot on the active roster. (Danielle Allentuck of the Colorado Springs Gazette was among those to relay the moves before the official announcement.)

Lateral epicondylitis is better known as “tennis elbow,” which is perhaps notable for the hurler. The club hasn’t provided any information about how long they expect Colomé to be out of action, though an injury to a pitcher’s throwing elbow will always lead to at least some level of concern.

The 33-year-old was signed to a one-year, $4.1MM contract in the offseason and has thrown 41 1/3 innings of 4.68 ERA ball, getting ground balls at a 55.6% clip. That’s well above the 43.3% league average for relievers and especially important when playing at Coors Field. As an impending free agent on a non-competitive team, Colomé’s name came up in trade rumors, though he ended up staying put after the Rockies had another quiet deadline.

Other injury notes from around the league…

  • The Marlins announced some roster moves between games of today’s doubleheader, with Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald being among those to pass them along. Right-hander Tommy Nance has been reinstated from the injured list, with fellow righty Jeff Brigham being optioned in a corresponding move. Nance made his MLB debut with the Cubs last year and then came to Miami on a waiver claim in March. He hasn’t found much success in the majors so far, pitching to a 6.54 ERA in his first 53 2/3 MLB innings. However, he’s fared much better in the minors, as evidenced by his 3.86 ERA in Triple-A over his career.
  • Last night, the Mets dealt with injuries to two infielders, as Eduardo Escobar left with side tightness and Jeff McNeil departed after a collision with Rhys Hoskins resulted in a cut on his hand. With their infield depth depleted, the club had to resort to emergency measures, plugging outfielder Mark Canha in at third base. Canha has some very limited third base work in his career, coming back in his time with Oakland. He logged two innings at the hot corner in 2015 and 13 more in 2016. “It was a little nerve-racking,” Canha told Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. “I just really didn’t want to make a mistake and make [Max Scherzer] angry.” The situation seems to have just been a temporary stopgap, as McNeil is back in the lineup today, playing second base with Luis Guillorme at third. Gosuke Katoh was at the ballpark today just in case, though neither McNeil nor Escobar were placed on the injured list.

    Man, everyone is trashing Keith for his comments even though his comments are true. Philly media was saying the same thing as well, but it is a problem when the opposition say it. Embrace his comments instead. Sweep the overachievers and this time don’t give every game like you did in April

      His comments were idiotic and unprofessional. The Mets are fantastic this year, but if you look at the last decade there was plenty of terrible years. Keith implied some kind of long history of the Mets being superior to the Phillies and the Phillies not being worth his team. Meanwhile, the Mets haven’t won anything since 1986 and the Phillies have the better record in recent years. It was ridiculous, and I like Keith. Oh and also the Phillies have less errors and a better fielding % than the Mets this year. And Keith mad these comments while the Mets were playing the Reds. It all seemed silly. If he was talking about this year? Still a dumb comment, but justifiable. He clearly stated “historically.” For a team that suffered as many collapses as the Mets, you’d think the announcer would be more humble in winning. Mets are a great team. Phillies are a very good team. These comments mean nothing to them, but it was a dumb thing for an announcer to say.

        I can’t tell which side of the bed Strider’s Leg got out on from one day to the next or which team he’s tearing down from one line to the next, but I’m pretty sure he means the Mets are the “overachievers,” not the Phillies. As a Mets’ fan, it was disappointing they couldn’t get that run home in the ninth because I still have PTSD from 2007/2008.

        “Keith implied some kind of long history of the Mets being superior to the Phillies”

        Have to disagree here. He just said, partially in jest, that watching the Phillies hasn’t been fun for him. He said nothing about the Mets, who he is paid to watch. He also never, ever shies away from criticizing the Mets when they show poor fundamentals. He didn’t imply the Mets were superior. He also said it prior to the season (he was relating a story), and can anyone seriously argue that the Girardi Phillies were fundamentally sound?

        “and the Phillies not being worth his team.”

        Keith takes a lot of days off every year and wanted to avoid a few Phillies games. Like, that’s it. He walked it back pretty quickly and the booth was talking about Philly in a positive way right after. No idea why or how anyone could take his comments seriously, in either direction.

          Clearly that was not the case in April. I’m pretty sure Philly players have his comments in mind and rightfully so. They may withhold their feelings, however, because most players are robots because they are taught to be politically correct.

          Honestly, I was just waiting for this comment from you or somebody else. There is always a scapegoat and the manager is usually the first one. Managers are often blamed, but usually it is not their fault for their team underperforming. It is not his fault your GM did a bad job improving the bullpen. It is also not Mr. Joe G. fault NC decided to stop hitting because he is no longer in his contract year.

          A great example is Kapler. Did he somehow learn to manage in SF after leaving Philly, or did 99% of his players in SF suddenly have career years at the same time? Regardless, what the reason, he is not the reason they won 107 last season nor is it his fault they are currently playing the way they should have last year this season.

          Kapler wasn’t the problem in Philly and I never said so, but I think it’s fair to say the 2021 Giants were a bit of a fluke and even some SF fans want Kapler fired a year after that run. Girardi was a clear problem. Different scenarios.

          To be fair, it is hard to quantify where the true fault comes from. Managers are just the first people blamed, sometimes rightfully so sometimes not.

          And I’ll add to this, for anyone who doesn’t watch the Mets broadcasts; that the Mets booth are more than fair to the opposing clubs we play, and sometimes to a fault! There are times when Gary Cohen won’t shut up about how fantastic an opposing pitcher or hitter is (Trea Turner immediately comes to mind) and it irks me to where I almost switch over to listen to the radio broadcast, instead. Aside from that, there isn’t one of them (GKR) who isn’t straight up professional in that booth.

        You are not seriously suggesting the Phillies are a better defensive team than the Mets, are you?

          When did I say that? I said that they have a better fielding % and less errors. Mets have more DRS. My point is, it’s not closer than people think. And the idea that the Phillies are significantly worse than the rest of the league and not worth Keith’s time is asinine. Especially when the Mets were playing the Reds at the time.

    Color guy said it. NYM under Buck unlikely to do say something remotely that unprofessional. Watch any NYM game when an opponent gets to first base. Chatterbox Alonso always talks with then and they all seem to smile and reply fraternally. 75% of the rivalry stuff is fan fiction. They all want to win period but they are also all bros

      Yeah I notice the same thing with most players. After the Padres got Soto, fans and talking heads kept talking about the Dodgers/Padres rivalry. As soon as SD & LA played you could see Mookie chatting on the bases with the whole infield and many SD hitters getting pats on the back and half hugs at 1st from Freeman.

    Not sure why the Mets are avoiding calling up Mark Vientos. If Escobar is hurt, it’s the perfect time. With Baty at AAA, Vientos isn’t going to get much more work at 3B.

      You mean the greatest moment in baseball since Babe Ruth? No walk off in world series history has had more drama. The way Gibby came through while injured and the way Buck and Vin separately called it, made that homerun the greatest of all of our lifetimes. It’s still played constantly on sports highlights. Dodgers are the best team in baseball and they have the greatest team history from Jackie to Hideo.
