New York Mets infielder Nick Madrigal could miss the entire 2025 season with a fractured left shoulder. Manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters Friday that Madrigal needs surgery to repair his non-throwing shoulder, which the player dislocated Sunday when he fell to the ground after throwing a ball to first base against the Washington Nationals.

Team officials told Madrigal he doesn’t have to be everything Jose Iglesias was to the Mets in order to win the job.
