David Wright Misses Third Game With Fractured Finger April 13, 2012, 6:39 pm David Wright was held out of the Mets lineup for the third game in a row on Friday, one day after seeing a hand specialist for his fractured right pinkie. Wright said that there was still significant swelling in the finger and that he was still having trouble bending it. He said he would see on Saturday if he could grip a bat. If not, he was likely to go on the disabled list. "It's moving in the right direction," Wright said of the healing process. But it's a fractured bone so it takes a little time. I wish it would go a little quicker. It's better than it was yesterday and a lot better than it was after the first day. Wright fractured the bone while sliding headfirst during Monday's game. He began the season hitting .583 with one home run and four runs batted in. "He had a nice thing going before he got hurt," Manager Terry Collins said. But to put him back in just to have him back in the lineup and not to have him be ready to produce, that's not the right thing to do. Justin Turner was inserted into the lineup to play third on Friday, but Collins said that if Wright had to miss significant time, he would probably move Daniel Murphy there from second.
