Ronny Mauricio is headed to the injured list after fracturing his left thumb while diving into first base during the Mets’ 4-3 loss to the Angels on May 2, 2026. The injury occurred in the seventh inning when a play was overturned, allowing Mauricio to be ruled safe. He recently became the starting shortstop after Francisco Lindor was placed on the IL. Bo Bichette, who played shortstop before moving to third base, is a leading candidate to fill the position in Mauricio’s absence.
