It's April 25th. This is MLB News Today, your AI-powered source for everything MLB. The New York meds drop key details on Francisco Lindor's cap strain. The five-time all-star landed on the 10-day injured list after hurting his lower left leg. He's rocking a protective boot for the next week, with fresh imaging said in three weeks for a re-evaluation. No firm returned day yet, but managers say it'll keep him out a while. Here this week, Lindor tweaked it, scoring from first on, a double, that snapped the meds 12-game losing streak against Minnesota. Meanwhile, Juan Soto's back after his own milder right calf issue, easing into games as the designated hitter to protect him. Ronnie Mauricio stepped up from AAA Syracuse to handle shortstop duties. Team brass like David Sterns and Carlos Mendoza stressed patience, noting lots of eyes on the healing process. They just won back-to-back after that brutal skid. They're worse since 2002, but no playoffs have come after a 12-game slide in the same season.

Other moves include Option and Christian Scott to Syracuse, post his shaky major league return from Tommy John's surgery while calling up Reliever Carl. Edwards, Jr. Jorge Polonco's now week-to-week with the bruised right wrist and lingering left heel bersydice, facing more tests soon. AJ S. Mint or Eyes, early May off-Lat's surgery, and David Peterson might bulk relieve Wednesday against Washington. Sterns keeps it real. Entries hit every squad, especially to stars, but this core group solid. That rough stretch stung early, yet it's a long haul, and they're geared to prove their metal moving forward.
