Jeff McNeil has Procedure for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil (shoulder) underwent a minor procedure for thoracic outlet syndrome shortly after the season ended, according to his agent, Garrett Parcell. McNeil already has good range of motion after the surgery and is expected to be a full participant in spring training in 2026. Parcell noted that McNeil's injury affected his swing late in the season, one in which he finished with a .243/.335/.411 slash line, .746 OPS, 12 home runs, 54 RBI, 42 runs scored, and three steals in 122 games played. The 33-year-old former batting champion had a rough .514 OPS in the final month of the season, but he could bounce back next year with better health. Even though McNeil could be New York's starting second baseman on Opening Day, he doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy upside at his age unless he suddenly becomes a .300 hitter again, which is unlikely.
