The time is officially now for top Mets prospect Francisco Alvarez

He’s here (again) and he’s perfect (still).

In the hours after the Mets got swept out of American Family Field by the Brewers, reports surfaced of Francisco Alvarez heading from Syracuse to New York. Why, you ask? Omar Narvaez left Wednesday’s finale with a calf injury and the club was uncertain of the severity.

There was nothing definite because the Mets likely wanted to re-evaluate Narvaez upon returning to New York. That didn’t bring good news for the veteran backstop:

Omar Narváez underwent imaging this morning that revealed a medium to high-grade strain of his left calf.
