The Mets are fairly confident that Ruben Tejada, who is headed for an MRI, strained his right quad. If that is the case, Tejada is DL-bound. David Lennon of Newsday speculates that the Mets could promote Jordany Valdespin, who was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo Saturday, to replace Tejada on the roster if the the shortstop hits the shelf. Tejada left Sunday's game in the fourth inning after stumbling and falling face-first into first base. In addition to the MRI on his quad, he will have his eye examined.
