David Wright, the New York Mets' oft-injured third baseman, will reportedly get a second opinion after being diagnosed with a right shoulder impingement that has rendered him questionable for Opening Day, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post.

On Tuesday, Mets general manager Sandy Alderson told reporters that Wright - plagued by persistent discomfort since he started playing catch about 10 days ago - has been shut down from throwing for two weeks, but noted the 34-year-old can still swing a bat and isn't a candidate for surgery.

"There is no structural damage, this is not a surgical issue," Alderson said, per Mike Puma of the New York Post. "This is just a matter of having to shut him down for a couple of weeks from throwing to make sure that we get that shoulder strengthened and stabilized."

Shifting Wright over to first base as his shoulder heals isn't an option, though, Alderson said, stressing that "our goal is to get him back to third base."

"It’s a pretty big setback for (Wright) because he's worked so hard to get into camp and actually is swinging the bat pretty good to be pushed back," manager Terry Collins said. "We'll just see when his arm gets better."

Limited to just 75 games over the last two years due to a litany of injuries, Wright, a seven-time All-Star, will earn $20 million in 2017, and is owed another $47 million over the following three seasons.
