Our favorite squirrel is going to be okay!

Not that we had expected otherwise, but it is good to hear confirmation from the man himself. On Wednesday, October 2nd, Jeff McNeil took to Instagram to share the good news:

It is exactly one week after McNeil was hit in the wrist by a pitch which resulted in a right distal ulnar fracture. He was placed on the 60- Day IL the next day (not that it mattered since the season was ending, anyway).

We had known he was expected to have surgery and it is good to see that the surgery was a success.

The recovery time is expected to be six weeks. Now that we have seen everything went well, it is safe to say McNeil will be in Port St. Lucie, on time, and ready for Spring Training.
