Murphy was diagnosed with a mild calf strain after consulting with doctors Tuesday, Marc Carig of Newsday reports. The Mets don't believe a DL stint is in play for Murphy, who could even be available for Wednesday's game if he checks out fine during pregame activities. Wilmer Flores covered second base for Murphy on Tuesday and will likely do so until Murphy is deemed ready to play again.
