Soto's Calf Strain: Mets Cautious, Fans on Edge

0:00On April 5th, Juan Soto, the New York Met star-right fielder, got hit with a right-calf-strain diagnosis after an MRI on Saturday. It happened Friday night when he tried stretching a single into a triple during their 10-3 blowout win over the San Francisco Giants. The injury looked worse at first, but the scan only showed a minor strain catching everyone off guard. Soto's already moving better today, way improved from yesterday, and the teams playing it cautious without rushing any big moves. Soto himself sounded optimistic, saying he's feeling solid, and they'll check day by day on how he wakes up. Manager Carlos Mendoza spotted him walking easy in the clubhouse, praising his vibe and attitude, but stressing, they got a baby that tricky calf spot. No injured list yet, that's the hope, but they're not ruling it out. In just eight games this season, Soto's slashing 355 with one-homer and five RBI's deep into year two of that massive 700, $65 million, $15-year mega deal.
