NEW YORK — Mets shortstop Jose Reyes will undergo
surgery on his injured right leg on Thursday in Dallas.
Reyes is scheduled for a cleanup of some scar tissue
remaining from a torn hamstring tendon behind his right knee. The Mets have said
Reyes will not need an operation to repair his torn right hamstring.
Reyes batted .279 with two homers, 15 RBIs and 11 steals
in 36 games this season. He was one of several key players who got hurt as the
Mets slipped to a 70-92 record and a fourth-place finish in the NL East.
The Mets said Wednesday that Dr. Daniel E. Cooper will
perform Reyes' surgery.
