The New York Mets faced another injury setback as catcher Francisco Alvarez left their 10-2 victory over the Tigers with a right knee injury, requiring an MRI. Alvarez, who contributed with a run and a double earlier in the game, was replaced by Luis Torrens after showing discomfort following a swing. The Mets are already dealing with injuries to key players like Luis Robert Jr., Jorge Polanco, and Francisco Lindor, complicating their roster situation. Mets president David Stearns updated that Robert’s back issues persist and Polanco’s recovery from Achilles bursitis is slow, while Lindor awaits MRI results for his calf strain.
