Conforto (back) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Matt Ehalt of The Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conforto will be held out for the second straight game after it was reported he was dealing with a stiff back Monday. The Mets didn't think the initial injury was anything to worry about, so he should still be considered day-to-day for the time being. Juan Lagares is starting for him in center field for the game.
