Mets' Jose Siri Begins Rehab Assignment, Nearing Return from Tibia Fracture

New York Mets outfielder Jose Siri has officially begun a rehab assignment with the Low-A squad, marking a significant step towards his potential late-season return. Siri has been sidelined since April 12 due to a fractured left tibia and experienced a setback in his recovery last month. Manager Carlos Mendoza anticipates Siri is still a couple of weeks away, with his eventual role likely being an extra outfielder and speedster off the bench, providing a boost to the team's outfield defense and speed.
