Juan Soto’s recent calf discomfort led to his DH placement, leaving Jorge Polanco without a spot in the lineup for the Mets’ victory over the Phillies. Polanco, returning from the injured list, is limited to DH duty and is not expected to play first base until next month. The Mets also anticipate Luis Robert Jr. rejoining the team after a significant injury layoff. Additionally, Clay Holmes is set to pitch in a minor league rehab game following his recovery from a broken fibula.
