Slugger Pete Alonso Returns to Mets Lineup Far Ahead of Schedule

Pete Alonso has been reinstated from the injured list by the Mets after only missing 10 days despite being expected to be out for 3-4 weeks due to a bone bruise and sprain in his left wrist.
Alonso declared himself "full go" without any limitations and trained during both team off days last week.
Top prospect Mark Vientos was sent to Triple-A to clear a roster spot for Alonso's return.
Alonso is still the National League's home run leader with 22 home runs.
The return of Alonso provides the Mets with their top slugger who ranks second in MLB with 22 home runs and leads New York with 49 RBI while slashing .231/.326/.546.
