The New York Mets will be without starting catcher James McCann for the foreseeable future.
The team announced that McCann is expected to miss about six weeks after X-rays showed a fracture of the hamate bone in his left hand.
Catcher Patrick Mazeika was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse with McCann on the 10-day injured list.
McCann is hitting .196/.266/.286 through 21 games in the second season of a four-year deal with the Mets.
