Cabrera was not in Friday's lineup due to continuing stiffness in his hamstring and knee, Seth Walder of The New York Daily News reports.

He was able to pinch hit Friday, but the veteran is clearly not 100 percent as he plays through lower-body issues. The Mets are considering various ways to keep Cabrera healthy, including shifting him to third base, but for now just accept that he'll get more frequent days off while manager Terry Collins tries to find ways to decrease his workload. Cabrera's .255/.333/.373 slash line may also remain fairly stagnant until he's able to get healthy.
