Winn went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a two-run double in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Rockies.

Winn's first multi-hit effort since Sept. 13 ended up generating over half of the Cardinals' runs in the game. The shortstop has three homers, three doubles and six RBI over his last 11 contests. For the season, he's at a .266/.313/.411 slash line, 15 homers, 55 RBI, 78 runs scored, 29 doubles and 11 stolen bases over 146 contests.

Manager Carlos Mendoza said after Tuesday's loss to Atlanta that Lindor (back) "could be in play" for Wednesday's game, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Lindor didn't play in Tuesday's contest, but he finished the game in the on-deck circle and would have pinch hit in the ninth inning if the Mets had put anybody on base. Mendoza's willingness to use Lindor in a late-game situation is a good sign that the infielder has recovered from his lingering back issue after missing eight consecutive games, and he seems to have a good chance of ending the streak Wednesday.

Lindor (back) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Atlanta.

It's the eighth consecutive start Lindor has missed due to a nagging back problem. The switch hitter has expressed optimism that he will be able to return at some point this week, but it's not clear when or if that will come to fruition. Luisangel Acuna will again start at shortstop and bat ninth for the Mets as Lindor's replacement.

The Pirates recalled Peguero from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old was up in the majors for a couple days in early June but hasn't seen action in the big leagues since last season. Peguero posted a .257/.316/.409 slash line with 13 homers and 15 steals in 128 games with Indianapolis this year.

Perdomo went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 loss to San Francisco.

Perdomo moved up the order to bat second, as Ketel Marte was held out of the starting lineup in a preventative measure. The double was the career-high 21st for Perdomo, who also has career bests in batting average (.276) and slugging percentage (.382). This is not the same hitter that batted .195 in 2022, his first full season in the majors.

Vazquez will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Phillies.

With Dansby Swanson resting in the series opener, Vazquez will pick up his second start in three games but just his second overall since being recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Aug. 23. Vazquez has logged just eight plate appearances between two stints with the Cubs on the season and is still looking for his first MLB hit.

Swanson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.

Swanson looks to be receiving some routine maintenance after he had been in the lineup for every game dating back to June 14, a stretch of 87 consecutive starts. Unless he's used off the bench, Swanson will put a five-game hitting streak on hold before likely returning to the starting nine Tuesday. Luis Vazquez will fill in for Swanson at shortstop on Monday.

Lindor (back) said that he's "optimistic" that he will play again for the Mets before the regular season concludes Sunday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Lindor missed out on a seventh consecutive start in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Phillies and hasn't played a full game since Sept. 11 due to back tightness. The star shortstop showed some tangible signs of progress over the weekend, taking batting practice Friday after receiving a facet joint injection for his ailing back a day earlier. He proceeded to take BP again Saturday and Sunday, and Lindor also noted that he's been able to track pitches, play catch, field groundballs and do some running while he's been out of the lineup. The Mets will see how Lindor is feeling coming out of Monday's team off day before the club provides another update on his status heading into Tuesday's series opener in Atlanta.

Turner went 2-for-4 with two steals and a run scored in Sunday's loss to the Mets.

Turner had two of the five hits the Phillies managed in the game and swiped multiple bases for the second time in his last three contests. He has at least one hit in seven of his last eight games, posting a .343 average over that span. Turner is treading around the .300 mark for the season once again, slashing .298/.342/.465 with 19 homers, 59 RBI, 84 runs, 19 steals and a 27:94 BB:K in 514 plate appearances.

Betts went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Rockies.

Betts came up clutch for the Dodgers with a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth to secure a walk-off win in a game Los Angeles once trailed 5-0. His home run came immediately after Shohei Ohtani tied the game with a long ball of his own to lead off the frame. Betts now has home runs in consecutive games and has driven in a run in three straight contests.
