Luis Torrens, the Mets catcher, is contemplating the need for enhanced groin protection after enduring severe discomfort from a foul tip during a recent game against the Cubs. Despite wearing a standard protective cup, Torrens suggests he might need a stronger option. His comments highlight the ongoing risk catchers face from foul tips, having taken numerous strikes in that area over the years. Meanwhile, Juan Soto, after struggling in the series, emphasized the need to move past recent frustrations and focus on improving his swing.
"I don't know if I have to wear another cup or find a way to wear platinum or metal," Torrens told The Post after the Mets' 6-2 victory over the Cubs.
"I can handle getting hit by a pitch, but this is different," Torrens said, referring to his groin area after suffering a foul tip.
