Francisco Lindor News: Sitting Thursday

Lindor isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Lindor went 0-for-5 during his first game back from the IL in the second half of Wednesday's doubleheader, and he'll now step out of the lineup as the Mets ease him back into regular playing time following the extended absence. Ronny Mauricio will fill in as New York's shortstop and bat seventh.
