Mets' Jesus Baez: Shelved at High-A

High-A Brooklyn placed Baez on its 7-day injured list July 5 with after undergoing knee surgery, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

According to Mayer, details regarding Baez's knee surgery aren't fully known, making it unclear whether the young infielder required an arthroscopic cleanup procedure or something more significant such as an ACL repair. In any case, Baez's return to game action doesn't appear to be imminent, and his availability for the rest of the season could be threatened. He slashed .267/.313/.467 with one home run and one stolen base in eight games for Brooklyn following his promotion from Single-A St. Lucie on June 24.
