Mets catcherFrancisco Alvarez is with Triple-A Syracuse for Saturday's game at the Yankees' Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, manager Carlos Mendoza explained before New York's matchup with the Miami Marlins.
"Good," Mendoza said of how Alvarez is doing. "He's in the lineup today, Triple-A, DHing."
Alvarez recently fractured his pinky but took batting practice Friday at Citi Field, two days after the injury news surfaced.
"He caught a bullpen fine," Mendoza said. "He's fine. That's why he got in the car and he's in Scranton right now. They're playing Scranton and he's DHing today, and see how he gets through it and maybe he's catching tomorrow."
Mendoza did not have a time frame for Alvarez's return to the Mets' lineup.
Alvarez, 23, is slashing .265/.349/.438 with seven home runs and 24 RBI in 56 games with the Mets this season.
