Francisco Lindor's broken toe healing fast; Mets return close

DENVER -- Shortstop Francisco Lindor's broken toe is healing fast enough that he may soon be back in the lineup for the New York Mets.

Possibly even this weekend.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said before Friday's game against Colorado that Lindor did some running and went through some drills in the cage. He might even have some type of availability Friday, Mendoza added.

Lindor's right pinky toe was broken by a pitch from Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin in the first inning Wednesday.
