Mets' Wilmer Flores: Landing on disabled list
Flores will be placed on the disabled list Thursday with a left hamstring injury.
Analysis:
Flores suffered the injury in Monday's game, though it is not believed to have occurred on his stolen base attempt, during which his helmet popped off and cut him on his forehead. He has backed up at all four infield positions, but due to better health than expected by David Wright, a solid start by the incumbent at each spot and a lack of left-handed opposing starting pitchers, Flores has seen minimal at-bats.
