Summary
Francisco Lindor is set to return from his calf strain with a minor league rehab stint starting Friday in Binghamton, possibly including a Syracuse stop if weather permits — and could be back in the Mets lineup as early as next week. He’ll play two games, rest one day, then play again before the team decides if he’s ready. Lindor’s been working hard in simulated games and will ultimately call his own readiness, with a possible DH role when he returns. That move will shift Bo Bichette to third base and Brett Baty back to utility, while Tyrone Taylor also begins rehab but may stay longer. Meanwhile, the Mets get an odd mid-series off day Friday due to a World Cup match drawing 80,000 fans — a rare scheduling quirk for a baseball team.
