## Resource

The New York Mets are struggling with a rash of injuries, leaving key players like Luis Robert Jr. and Jorge Polanco on the injured list. Polanco is making progress but still dealing with wrist and Achilles issues, while Robert is weeks away from game action due to back problems. The Mets are turning to bench players and considering call-ups from Triple-A Syracuse to fill the void. The team must decide whether to promote prospects like Nick Morabito, AJ Ewing, and Ryan Clifford for everyday playing time or keep the roster fresh for the remainder of the season.
