5/5 🧵
Early season injuries are always a blow, especially when it's your marquee offseason acquisition. The Mets will hope the 2-3 week timeline holds and that the rest of the lineup wakes up in Soto's absence.

4/5 🧵
Timing couldn't be worse — the Mets offense hasn't clicked yet this season, and Soto was one of the few consistent contributors. Now they'll need to find production elsewhere for the next few weeks while he recovers.
3/5 🧵
The team called up infielder Ronny Mauricio from Triple-A to fill the roster spot. Soto stayed on the active roster over the weekend while they assessed the injury severity before placing him on the IL Monday.
2/5 🧵
Through 8 games, Soto was slashing .355/.412/.516 with 1 homer and 5 RBIs. The four-time All-Star was producing while the rest of the Mets' lineup struggled to find rhythm. Losing that bat stings.
1/5 🧵
Juan Soto is heading to the IL with a right calf strain — expected to miss 2-3 weeks. The injury happened Friday while running the bases, and the Mets just made it official. One of the few bright spots in a struggling offense, now sidelined.
