Cleared of Structural Damage; Expected to Return to Outfield Soon

New York Mets star Juan Soto is currently limited to designated hitter duties due to right forearm tightness, but a recent MRI returned clean. Despite the injury concern, Soto homered to cap a Mets offensive outburst and expressed optimism about his recovery. Manager Carlos Mendoza indicated that Soto, who is also coming off a calf strain, could return to left field within the next few days. The team is monitoring him closely to ensure his potent bat remains in the lineup during this stretch.
