LAKELAND, Fla. — David Wright is expected to return to Florida on Tuesday, but when he’s back doing baseball activities is still uknown.

The Mets flew Wright to New York on Monday to have his sore ribs checked by team doctors and to receive an ultrasound-guided cortisone shot in the left side of his rib cage.

“He’ll have to be re-evaluated,” Mets GM Sandy Alderson said Monday. “Doctors told us that he essentially plateaued. There’s a little bit of soreness and this will accelerate the recovery process.”

It’s too soon to know when Wright will return to the field.
