Jed Lowrie’s New York Mets career has been completely marred by injury, and that has continued into 2020.
Lowrie is dealing with a knee problem, and the Mets have not given any timetable for his possible return. Lowrie wasn’t telling either — and there was more than a hint of frustration in his response when asked about it on Wednesday.
Asked again today if he is close to games, Jed Lowrie responded: "I have to refer you to the organization."
Asked if he expects to play at all this spring, Lowrie said: "I have to refer you to the organization."
(The Mets have revealed no timeline for Lowrie's return.)

Maybe the Mets have told Lowrie not to talk, but he certainly doesn’t sound thrilled with where he’s at. It could just be frustration, too.
The Mets looked into trading Lowrie before the season, but his injury status made that impossible. It definitely seems like there’s some friction here.
