Mets Injury Updates: Lindor Day-to-Day, Núñez Out for Season
Francisco Lindor Day-to-Day with Oblique Strain
New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor is day-to-day with an oblique strain. Lindor left Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the first inning with the injury.
The Mets have not provided a timetable for Lindor's return, but oblique injuries can take several weeks to heal. Lindor is one of the Mets' best players, and his absence will be a significant blow to the team.
Tommy Pham Activated from Injured List
The Mets have activated outfielder Tommy Pham from the injured list. Pham has been out since June 27 with a left oblique strain.
Pham is expected to start in right field on Wednesday against the Phillies. The addition of Pham will give the Mets a much-needed boost in their outfield.
Joely Rodríguez Optioned to Triple-A
The Mets have optioned reliever Joely Rodríguez to Triple-A Syracuse. Rodríguez has struggled this season, posting a 6.75 ERA in 22 appearances.
The Mets have a number of other relievers who have pitched well this season, so Rodríguez was expendable. The move will give Rodríguez a chance to work on his mechanics in Triple-A.
David Peterson to Start on Saturday
The Mets have announced that David Peterson will start on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds.
Peterson has been one of the Mets' most consistent starters this season, posting a 3.66 ERA in 12 starts.
