Mets Lose Wheeler to Torn Elbow Ligament
Mets pitcher Zack Wheeler is diagnosed with a torn ulnar collateral ligament likely ending his 2015 season. General manager Sandy Alderson and manager Terry Collins say Wheeler may need Tommy John surgery after MRI results confirm the injury. The setback shifts rotation plans as Dillon Gee prepares to fill in and Noah Syndergaard looms as a potential debut. Harvey remains confident the team can contend for a playoff spot without Wheeler.
