Francisco Lindor Headed for Lengthy Stint on the Injured List?
New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) is in serious danger of having an extended stint on the injured list. The Mets officially placed Lindor on the 10-day injured list on Thursday, but reports suggest he could be on the shelf for an extended period. Per Joel Sherman of The New York Post, the Mets fear Lindor's calf strain is far worse than Juan Soto's and could be "going to be down a while," per manager Carlos Mendoza. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, but it appears the star infielder could be on the shelf for an extended period of time. Lindor was off to a slow start in the 2026 campaign, posting a .226/.314/.355 line over his 24 contests. However, before going down, Lindor held a much higher .360 AVG and hit both of his home runs over his last seven games. While sidelined, Ronny Mauricio should be given ample opportunities to carve out a role in the Mets lineup.
