NL East Roster Setbacks & Honors

The New York Mets are preparing to honor franchise legend Carlos Beltrán by retiring his No. 15 jersey on September 19 before hosting the Philadelphia Phillies, yet the club is facing immediate roster challenges. The Mets placed outfielder Juan Soto on the injured list after he sustained a minor right calf strain while running the bases last Friday, sidelining him for an expected two to three weeks.
