  "account": "New York Mets have recalled Ronny Mauricio from their minor league system and placed Jared Young on the seven-day concussion IL following a frightening collision at first base during a game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Young suffered a severe blow to the head while trying to field a ground out, leaving him unable to continue for the season. Despite the setback, Jared Young remains optimistic and reports that his prognosis is as good as expected. He has full range of motion in his arms and legs and is able to walk, indicating that he has avoided a worst-case scenario. Young, who had a stellar campaign for the Mets, hitting nine home runs, driving in 39, and scoring 46 runs with a 111 wRC+ in 103 games, hopes to make a strong comeback upon recovery. Meanwhile, Mauricio, who has struggled at the MLB level with a -0.5 bWAR in just 17 games, will have the opportunity to prove himself and fight for a spot on next year's team during the final week-and-a-half of the season.",
  "summary": "The news is not unexpected, but thankfully Jared Young seems to have avoided the worst in his scary injury.",
