Likely to lose playing time Iglesias is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact After going 2-for-18 at the plate while starting each of the Mets' past five games, Iglesias will hit the bench for Monday's series opener. With his bat cooling down of late, Iglesias may find himself at risk of moving to a short-side platoon role. The newly acquired Jesse Winker is expected to serve as a regular starter in the outfield when the Mets face right-handed pitching, which will likely result in Jeff McNeil moving back to the keystone.

The Colorado Rockies hit the road against the New York Mets looking to break a three-game road losing streakJULY 14 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
First career two-homer game Iglesias went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Friday's 7-6 win over the Rockies.
Impact The veteran infielder took Tanner Gordon deep in the second inning before turning around a Peter Lambert fastball in the fifth, giving Iglesias his first career multi-homer performance in his 1,124th big-league game. Jeff McNeil has been bouncing between the keystone and a corner outfield spot with Starling Marte (knee) on the shelf, but he would likely be losing playing time at second base even if the rest of the roster was healthy -- in 79 plate appearances since joining the Mets, Iglesias is slashing .347/.380/.560 with seven doubles, three home runs, 12 runs and 16 RBI.
