Ronny Mauricio hits massive homer in quest to return to Mets after injury disaster
NY Post
Ronny Mauricio continues to send reminders that he was a top prospect not all that long ago.
The Mets’ infielder hit a mammoth home run to right field Thursday with Triple-A Syracuse to continue his blistering showing in the minor leagues in his return from a torn ACL.
The 24-year-old now has three homers in just 57 minor-league at-bats.
Mauricio had long been hyped as a potential starter for the Mets and he showed promise during his 2023 call-up, hitting .292 with an .852 OPS.
That momentum, though, came crashing down after he suffered a torn ACL in Dec. 2023 during a Dominican Winter League game and also underwent a procedure to remove scar tissue.
Now that he’s healthy again, Mauricio is trying to work his way back to Flushing. He’s been spending time at second base and third base during his minor-league stint.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
