New York Mets third baseman David Wright will be activated to the 40-man roster Sept. 25 ahead of his long-awaited return to the lineup Sept. 29 during the team's final homestand.Anthony DiComo of MLB.com provided the updated timetable Thursday and passed along comments from the seven-time All-Star http://www.athleticsfanproshop.com/authentic-mark-mcgwire-jersey , who hasn't played in the major leagues since 2016 because of spinal stenosis along with enduring neck and shoulder injuries."It's truly been an honor to take the field with you, and serve as your captain," Wright told reporters about his teammates. "To the fans, words can't address my gratitude."Tina Cervasio of Fox 5 NY highlighted more of Wright's remarks:Tina Cervasio TinaCervasioLong emotional thank yous to those who have impacted #DavidWright and his #Mets career. FOX5DESK fox5ny X5HCABjVQ2The 35-year-old Virginia native hinted the late-season appearances could mark the end of his career, though he didn't answer directly when asked if he'll retire."Physically, the way I feel right now, and from what the docs told me, there's not going to be any improvement,"he said. "So I don't see [playing full time again] as a possibility."Wright posted a .904 OPS with 18 home runs and 17 stolen bases across 112 games in 2013.His impact has steadily faded since then, however. His OPS dropped to .698 the following season before playing 38 and 37 games, respectively, over the next two years because of injuries. He missed all of 2017.After a few halted comeback attempts, he finally made it out for a rehab assignment in the Mets' minor league system last month. He struggled, posting a .171/.209/.195 triple-slash line with no homers across 41 at-bats in the minors.The Mets Stephen Piscotty Jersey , who own a 66-78 record, will soon get eliminated from playoff contention. That provides additional incentive to give Wright a chance to play in the majors again in front of the home fans at Citi Field, especially if retirement is his next step.It's unclear whether the two-time Gold Glove Award winner will be available for pinch-hitting or defensive-replacement duties during the three-game series against the Atlanta Braves, who are trying to lock down the NL East division title and a playoff berth, starting Sept. 25.The Mets then close out the regular season when they take on the Miami Marlins, with the middle contest of that three-game set scheduled as Wright's return to the starting lineup. MILWAUKEE (AP) — Travis Shaw and Christian Yelich homered to help the Milwaukee Brewers overcome an early deficit, and Chase Anderson kept the ball in the ballpark when it mattered.Anderson settled in after giving up two early solo homers and the Brewers rallied for a 5-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night.“This is the big leagues, guys are going to make you pay for mistakes and they really did for those two pitches,” said Anderson, who allowed multiple homers for the ninth time this season. “Homers have been kind of a big thing for me, a lot of solo homers. The first inning has been a big thing for me this year, but today I felt like I kind of found something as the game went on.”Shaw’s two-run homer off Homer Bailey put the Brewers up 3-2 in the sixth. Jesus Aguilar singled to open the inning and Shaw followed with his 25th homer, lining an 0-2 pitch into the right-field seats.“I was trying to throw a fastball up and in (on the homer), the same pitch he broke his bat on two pitches before that http://www.athleticsfanproshop.com/authentic-andrew-triggs-jersey ,” Bailey said.Anderson, pitching on seven days’ rest, entered tied for the National League lead with 24 homers allowed and gave up second-inning solo shots to Eugenio Suarez and Phillip Ervin as the Reds took a 2-0 lead. Anderson then retired the final 14 hitters he faced.Anderson (8-7) allowed two hits in six innings, with six strikeouts and no walks. Josh Hader retired six straight, striking out three, and Jeremy Jeffress pitched the ninth for his fifth save.“When Chase is leaving some balls in the middle, he’s getting hurt on them, for sure,” Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. “But, I thought he made some really quality pitches after that. He had better fastball command today, curve ball was better today. He put it together after that really well.”Bailey (1-11) kept the Brewers off the scoreboard until Yelich’s 20th homer, a one-out solo shot in the fifth that made it 2-1. Bailey, who has not won since May 12, allowed three runs on five hits in six innings Jake Smolinski Jersey , striking out five and walking one.“He has not been fortunate, that’s for sure,” Reds manager Jim Riggleman said. “The main thing is he is throwing the ball well and getting us deep in the game and not wearing out the bullpen. He’s doing his part there.”The Brewers added two runs in the eighth off Jared Hughes on a pinch-hit RBI triple by Keon Broxton and Manny Pina’s sacrifice fly.Suarez opened the second with his 28th homer, sending a 1-1 pitch over the wall in left-center. One out later, Ervin drove a 1-0 pitch to left for his fourth.Anderson now has allowed 26 homers in 135 1/3 innings, after giving up just 14 in 141 1/3 innings last season.“He gave up those two homers in the second, but outside of that, he pitched really well,” Shaw said. “His curveball was really good today.”UPON FURTHER REVIEWLorenzo Cain beat out an infield single to short with one out in the seventh The Reds challenged, but the call was upheld after a review estimated at 1 minute, 40 seconds.TRAINER’S ROOMReds: OF Scott Schebler (right shoulder), who just completed a seven-game rehab stint at Triple-A Louisville, including six as DH, began another rehab assignment Monday at Double-A Pensacola.Brewers: RHP Matt Albers Bruce Maxwell Jersey , on the 10-day DL (left hamstring strain), is back with team and could be activated soon. He pitched three scoreless rehab outings with Double-A Biloxi, including one Saturday. “He’s ready.
