After being acquired at the trading deadline by the New York Mets, Yoenis Cespedes has been a huge part of why the Mets are on their way to the World Series.
Cespedes has delivered several hits down the home stretch of the season and throughout the playoffs, but now Mets fans are holding their breath after he was removed from Game 4 against the Cubs with a shoulder injury.
This shoulder injury could not have come at a worse time as the Mets prepare for their biggest series of the year, and per The Big Lead Cespedes was out on the golf course just prior to the game this evening.

No pressure on the #NYMets up 3-0 on #Cubs in #NLCS so Yoenis Cespedes spends the morning before game 4 golfing at Medinah country club

While it hasn’t been confirmed that Cespedes time out on the course is the cause of his shoulder injury, the timing of the injury is very interesting.
The Mets have almost a week before Game one of the World Series, so Cespedes has some time to get ready, but if he has to miss Game One things will get very interesting.
