Mets catching prospect Travis d'Arnaud was cleared to remove his walking boot, according to ESPNNewYork.com.
d'Arnaud tweeted that he can start buying left shoes again, hinting that he no longer has a walking boot. He's been out for seven weeks after fracturing a bone in his foot. He is considered one of the team's top prospects entering the season. He was the prize of the R.A. Dickey deal.
d'Arnaud is hitting .250/.429/.472 in 36 at-bats in Triple-A.
