Juan Soto left New York's series opener against the Dodgers at Citi Field after only two plate appearances due to left calf tightness. The Mets announced he will undergo an MRI the following day. Interim manager Andy Green indicated that landing on the injured list is a real possibility. Soto previously missed three weeks in early April with a right calf injury, raising concern about recurring lower-leg issues.
