The Mets are optimistic that McCann (back) will avoid the injured list, and he could be available off the bench Thursday against the Dodgers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

McCann is out of the lineup for the third consecutive game Thursday. However, his potential to be available off the bench is a positive sign, as he was ruled out from any game action on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Patrick Mazeika continues to get playing time behind the plate in McCann's absence.
