Known for his charismatic personality, the outfielder spoke candidly to reporters during a recent update on his rehabilitation, leaving fans both reassured and amused.
“Honestly, I feel like I’m slowly morphing into a new kind of player.

His candid and comedic approach to discussing his injury has become the talk of the Mets’ clubhouse, as well as the social media world.
The player, who is recovering from a strained muscle, took the opportunity to poke fun at his downtime. “I’ve been working hard to get back, but, let’s be honest—Netflix and snacks are also part of the rehab plan, right?” he joked. “The trainers keep telling me to focus on my rehab exercises, but I think I might have to add a few more stretches to get off the couch.”
Despite his light-hearted tone, the outfielder assured Mets fans that his recovery was progressing well. “The trainers have been great. They’ve been pushing me to get back on the field as quickly as possible. But it’s all about taking it one day at a time. The goal is to get back out there and contribute to the team, but I don’t want to rush it and end up back in the training room.”
His comments have garnered plenty of attention from fans, who appreciate his positive and humorous outlook in the face of an injury setback. While it’s clear that the player has not lost his sense of humor, his commitment to returning to the field stronger than ever is evident.
The Mets have certainly missed his presence in the outfield, but the player’s upbeat attitude and his ability to keep things light-hearted have brought a much-needed dose of positivity to the team during a challenging time. Mets fans are looking forward to his return, and with quotes like these, it’s clear that he’ll be back in top form—both on and off the field.
While the exact timeline for his return is still unclear, it seems like the outfielder is well on his way to a full recovery. As he continues to heal, fans will no doubt be cheering him on—and perhaps sharing a few laughs along the way.
