Injury Didn’t Stop Mets’ Edwin Diaz From Some Heavy Retail Therapy, Buys A Neckpiece Worth $250K

The World Baseball Classic celebration resulted in the 29-year-old Mets closer Edwin Diaz tearing his right patellar tendon, which has kept him out of action this season. He commissioned an expensive necklace with his number 39 and a trumpet at full blast.

It’s possible that Edwin will be allowed to join the club before the season is over. Given that they are 13 games behind the Braves in the NL East, the Mets could really use him.

Edwin Diaz’s injury occurred around four months after he committed to the Mets under a significant five-year, $102,000,000 contract. Additionally, Edwin spent some of his contract money on a $250,000 diamond chain with a trumpet while he was recovering from his injuries.

The exciting introduction song to which Diaz enters the mound at Citi Field, “Narco” by Timmy Trumpet, is represented by the trumpet, of course.

According to New York jeweler Victor Rodriguez, who goes under the name Tajia Diamonds, the pendant is valued at $250,000 and was crafted with VS diamonds and F color gemstones. The necklace was also made with VS diamonds.

After suffering a celebration injury, Diaz was predicted to miss the entire season for the Mets, so it was exciting to see him throwing at Citi Field on Friday.

In 62 innings pitched last season, Diaz had a 1.31 ERA, 32 saves, and 118 strikeouts.
