Francisco Alvarez (thumb) headed to Mets' 10-day IL

New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez will be heading to the 10-day injured list, the team announced Saturday afternoon.

What It Means:

Alvarez left Friday's game early and did not return due to a sprained left thumb. Now, he will be headed to the IL. Tomas Nido was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to fill out the active roster.

In 59 plate appearances this season, Alvarez has a .236 batting average with a .652 OPS.
