Lindor's Calf Strain: Mets Face Long Road

0:00It's April 25th. This is New York meds news today, powered by AI, your team, your update. New York meds are getting hit hard by calf injuries again. Shorestop Francisco Lindor just landed on the 10-day injured list with a strained calf from Wednesday night's game. The early word is, he'll miss time until early June, way longer than Outfielder Juan Soto's two-week stint that sparked a brutal 12-game losing. Manager Carlos Mendoza called it right away, saying this one's more serious than Soto's quick turnaround. The team made the move Thursday to clear space, knowing Lindor could be sideline for weeks. Lindor is staying positive, comparing it to a calf strain he had back in 2019 with Cleveland that kept him out just three weeks. He insists this feels less severe and hates sitting out. But a sports orthopedic specialist from NYU Langone paints a tougher picture, warning it could stretch to six weeks with no shortcuts. It's mostly about time and healing. The meds are hurting bad without him, sitting eight games under 509.5 games back of the Braves

1:05after another close loss. Lindor swears he'll push back fast, trusting the trainers to get him field ready soon.
