Hmm...I can remember times where I was confident and the Mets just oozed.

Back issues are notoriously tricky. Already, Lindor has missed the original timetable he offered of a return within two to five days. Lindor said it was hard to answer whether he’d be available to play Tuesday, adding he’d have to see how he feels Monday first then pass a checklist from the training staff.
