Leaves with back soreness Lindor was removed from Friday's game versus the Phillies with lower-back soreness.

Impact Lindor went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored before his back forced him out of the game in the seventh inning. It's unclear how severe his injury is, but Eddy Alvarez could be in line to start at shortstop if Lindor needs to sit out Saturday's contest.

Cranks game-tying homer Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Lindor delivered one of his biggest hits of the season Wednesday, breaking up Bowden Francis' no-hit bid with a solo home run to lead off the ninth, tying the game 1-1 and kickstarting the Mets' six-run frame. While Lindor has had a tremendous season overall, he'd been slumping a bit coming into Wednesday, going just 1-for-14 in his previous four contests. Overall, the 30-year-old shortstop is slashing .268/.340/.492 through 665 plate appearances this year with 31 homers, 85 RBI, 102 runs scored and 27 stolen bases.

Sparks win with homer No. 30 Lindor went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, two runs scored, three RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

Impact The shortstop opened the scoring in the third inning with a two-run shot off Kutter Crawford -- the only hit the Mets would manage off the right-hander through six innings before pulling away against the Boston bullpen. Lindor might be the favorite for the NL MVP Award in a lot of years, but Shohei Ohtani's quest for a 50-50 campaign likely makes any other performance moot. Even so, Lindor's numbers are hard to ignore -- he's four steals away from his own 30-30 season, and three runs shy of reaching triple digits for the fourth time in his career.

Goes deep Sunday Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the White Sox.

Impact Lindor struck out three times but got a hold of one in the fourth to put the Mets up 1-0.
