    Mets' Amed Rosario: Dealing with quad tightness

    Rosario exited Monday's game against the Braves with left quad tightness, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    He couldn't run full speed to first base on a groundout early in the contest and was subsequently pulled with the injury. Andres Gimenez would likely get starts at shortstop if Rosario has to miss time. Rosario was 1-for-2 with a run scored prior to exiting.

    Mets' Amed Rosario: Exits with lower-body injury

    Rosario left Monday's game against the Braves in the bottom of the third inning with an apparent injury, David Lennon of Newsday reports.

    He ran slowly out of the box on a groundout and then exited the game. Andres Gimenez shifted to shortstop while Luis Guillorme came in to play third base.

  • Jeff McNeil 2B | ATH

    Mets' Jeff McNeil: Out with lower-back tightness

    McNeil was scratched from Monday's lineup after experiencing lower-back tightness during his pregame batting cage routine, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    It sounds like this could be just a day-to-day situation for McNeil, but back injuries are always tricky to predict. Luis Guillorme and Andres Gimenez could pick up extra starts at third base if McNeil misses more than just Monday's game.

    Mets' Jeff McNeil: Last-minute scratch Monday

    McNeil was a last-minute scratch from Monday's lineup against the Braves, Steve Gelbs of SNY TV reports.

  • Angels' Jeremiah Jackson: Added to pool

    Jackson joined the Angels' player pool Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Jackson will report to the team's alternate training site in Long Beach, CA. With no minor-league games this season, he'll get the chance to continue his development in the best available environment, though he's highly unlikely to make his debut this season, as he's yet to play above rookie ball.
