Mets' Francisco Lindor has fractured toe, not expected to go on IL

LOS ANGELES -- New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor broke his right pinky toe when he was hit by a pitch Wednesday but is not expected to land on the injured list, at least for now.

Instead, Lindor is considered day-to-day, with manager Carlos Mendoza saying he was not available for Thursday's series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Mendoza did not commit to Lindor returning for Friday's game against the Colorado Rockies.

"If I can tolerate the pain, yes I will play," Lindor said. "If I can't, then it'd be unfair to play with 25 guys on the roster.
