Mets infielder Bo Bichette is out of the lineup for a second consecutive game due to soreness in his legs and right ankle, according to team updates. Ahead of the Mets’ game against the Boston Red Sox, interim manager Andy Green says the issue is “day to day,” and that Bichette’s availability can change game by game. Reports note that Bichette has been dealing with right ankle soreness and also “sore legs.” Green indicates Bichette experienced pain during the team’s previous series in Atlanta, where he went 8-for-18, and that he has also absorbed impact from fouled balls off his legs. Multiple outlets describe the decision as continued caution while he remains symptomatic.
In addition to Bichette’s situation, injury notes around the same team briefing include updates on other Mets players, including Marcus Semien nearing a potential rehab assignment. The sources do not provide a confirmed return date for Bichette, and at least one account suggests he could miss additional games, potentially extending beyond the immediate matchup against Boston.
