Luis Robert Jr. Likely to Land on the Injured List
New York Mets outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (back) had an MRI on Wednesday, and while the results have not been released, reports are that the injury will cause him to be placed on the injured list this Thursday. Robert played in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader but was out of the lineup Tuesday after the off-day due to lower back tightness. He missed Tuesday and Wednesday's game and still isn't ready to return. Robert is hitting .224 on the season but is only 7-for-46 (.152) in his last 12 games with three doubles and no homers. With Robert likely landing on the IL along with Francisco Lindor (calf) and Jorge Polanco (wrist), the Mets' lineup will be stretched thin with MJ Melendez and Tyrone Taylor likely to pick up most of Robert's playing time.
