On IL with calf strain
The Mets placed Soto (calf) on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a strained left calf.
Análise
Soto made an early exit from Friday's contest against the Dodgers due to a sore left calf, marking the second time he's been forced out of a game because of his calf since the All-Star break. MRI results confirmed Saturday that the 27-year-old has suffered a Grade 2 strain, per Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com, and although no definitive return timeline has been established just yet, interim manager Andy Green confirmed that Soto's absence will be longer than the two weeks he missed with a right calf strain in April. Jorge Polanco figures to see consistent starts as New York's designated hitter while Soto is out, and Eric Wagaman will come up from Triple-A Syracuse to replenish the team's bench depth.

Headed for imaging
Soto (calf) will undergo imaging Saturday after being removed from Friday's game early, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. "This has nagged him for a week," interim manager Andy Green said after Friday's contest. "Anytime you get an image, you're concerned."

The superstar outfielder has been dealing with a sore left calf since the first game following the All-Star break and has mostly played DH during that time while also getting Wednesday off, but that hasn't been enough to clear up the issue. Soto also missed time with a calf strain earlier this season, but that was his right calf, not his left. Over 17 games in July, Soto has managed a .218/.405/.436 slash line in 74 plate appearances with four homers, eight runs and 13 RBI.

Exits early Friday
Soto was removed from Friday's game against the Dodgers due to left calf soreness.
Análise
Soto logged two walks in two plate appearances before coming out of the game in the sixth inning. The star outfielder exited a game last week due to soreness in the same calf, and although the team has said it isn't anything serious, he could be set for some time off now that it's proved to be a nagging injury. Jorge Polanco would likely pick up reps as New York's designated hitter if Soto were to miss any games.

Receiving afternoon off
Soto is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.
Análise
Soto suffered a calf injury that forced him out late in a game last Thursday versus the Phillies, but he proceeded to start in each of the Mets' ensuing four contests while going 2-for-16 with three walks, two runs and one RBI. The Mets haven't indicated that Soto has experienced any setbacks with his calf, so he may just be getting a planned maintenance day while the team closes out its series in Milwaukee with a day game after a night game. With Soto on the bench, the Mets will go with a starting outfield of Carson Benge, A.J. Ewing and Brett Baty from left to right, while Jorge Polanco serves as the designated hitter.
