Mets Officially Place Francisco Lindor on Injured List With Calf Strain
The New York Mets officially announced on Thursday that they placed shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) on the 10-day injured list with a left-calf strain and recalled infielder Ronny Mauricio from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move. Lindor will miss at least 10 days with a calf injury that he suffered in the team's win over the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday. With Lindor on the shelf, Mauricio will start at the 6 and bat eighth in Thursday's series finale against the Twins and right-hander Joe Ryan. Mauricio is worth a look in deeper fantasy baseball leagues if he sees regular playing time in New York with Lindor sidelined, as he was really hitting the ball well at Syracuse before his call-up. There's a chance that Bo Bichette is moved from third base to short, too, which would open up the hot corner for either Mauricio or Brett Baty. Lindor was off to a slow start by his standards early on in 2026, but he's a must-stash in an IL spot while he heals in all fantasy formats.
