D'Arnaud isn't in the lineup for the Mets' season opener Monday against the Braves, David Lennon of Newsday reports.
Noah Syndergaard is on the hill for the Mets, so his personal catcher, Rene Rivera, will get the nod over d'Arnaud. While health hasn't been an issue for d'Arnaud this spring, he's struggled to control the running game and could lose out on starts to Rivera as a result if he fails to show much improvement during the regular season. Look for d'Arnaud to make his season debut Wednesday.
