J.D. DAVIS NEWS

Returns from injury Davis (hand) was activated off the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Davis spent just the minimum 10 days on the injured list and missed fewer games than expected given that the Mets saw several games postponed during that stretch. He'll likely feature in at least one half of Saturday's doubleheader against the Rockies.

Follow-up X-rays also negative Additional X-rays on Davis' left wrist were negative, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

More X-rays coming Mets manager Luis Rojas said Davis will undergo additional X-rays on his bruised left hand Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact Though the initial X-rays Davis underwent Tuesday revealed no structural damage, he apparently had too much inflammation on his hand for the scans to get a clear image. Davis will sit out Wednesday's game in Philadelphia, but the Mets are still viewing him as day-to-day heading into this weekend's series with Miami.

Sitting Wednesday Davis (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

Impact Davis was able to avoid any structural damage to his left hand after getting struck by a pitch in Tuesday's win, but the Mets will give him the series finale off while he's presumably still managing some soreness. Luis Guillorme will check in for Davis at third base in what amounts to an upgrade in the field but a downgrade at the plate.
