Not close to running program
Soto (calf) has been swinging a bat indoors and playing catch but is not close to being cleared for a running program, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Analyse
Soto suffered a right calf strain less than a week ago, so it's not terribly surprising he's not ready to test things out by running yet. The Mets believe Soto's injury is minor, though his stay on the injured list is expected to extend past the minimum 10 days. Mark Vientos has picked up extra playing time since Soto was injured.

Out 2-to-3 weeks with calf strain
The Mets placed Soto (calf) on the 10-day injured list Monday.
Analyse
Soto strained his right calf during Friday's 10-3 win over the Giants. The Mets gave him a couple days to recover in order to see if he made enough improvement to avoid an IL stint, but it didn't happen. According to the Mets, Soto's calf strain is viewed as minor and is expected to keep him out for 2-to-3 weeks. Jared Young has filled in for Soto in left field for the last two games and should continue to see increased reps. Brett Baty (thumb) and Tyrone Taylor are also candidates to see more playing time in the outfield.

Sitting again Sunday
Soto (calf) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analyse
The veteran outfielder sat out of Saturday's contest after suffering a minor strain in his right calf Friday, and he'll sit for a second consecutive game Sunday. Soto will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery and try to avoid an IL stint.

Dealing with minor strain
Soto was diagnosed with a minor strain in his right calf Saturday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Analyse
The Mets will hold Soto out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants, but no decision has been made yet on whether to place him on the injured list. The 27-year-old outfielder is optimistic that he'll be able to avoid a trip to the IL, but the team could end up putting him on the shelf if he isn't feeling better within a few days.

Headed for MRI
Soto will get an MRI on Saturday after exiting Friday's win over the Giants with right calf soreness, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. "There's obviously concern any time you send a player for an MRI, and those areas, the calf area, can be tricky," manager Carlos Mendoza said after the victory. "So we've just got to wait."
Analyse
The testing could be simply precautionary, but if Soto were to miss significant time, it would be a huge blow to the Mets' offense. The 27-year-old superstar has hit safely in eight straight games to begin the season -- he went 1-for-1 before departing Friday's contest -- while slashing .355/.412/.516 with two doubles, a homer, three runs, five RBI and a 3:6 BB:K. If Soto is unavailable Saturday, Brett Baty could get the nod against right-hander Landen Roupp.

Exits with calf tightness
Soto was removed from Friday's game against the Giants in the first inning due to right calf tightness.
Analyse
After reaching base on a single, Soto appeared to tweak his calf while running from first base to third on Bo Bichette's RBI single. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but the Mets will presumably bring their star outfielder in for imaging and provide more details in the near future. Tyrone Taylor took Soto's place in left field Friday and could be in line for a few starts in the near future if Soto's injury proves to be serious.
