Narvaez (calf) expects to begin a rehab assignment by the end of the week, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rookie Francisco Alvarez is rapidly improving and seems to be locking down a significant role behind the dish for the Mets, so Narvaez could find himself competing with Tomas Nido (vision issues) for one roster spot when both backstops are healthy again. Narvaez played only five games this season before suffering a significant calf strain in early April that landed him on the 60-day IL.

Narvaez was diagnosed with a medium-to-high grade strain of his left calf Thursday and is expected to be sidelined 8-to-9 weeks.

EDGE Analysis

Narvaez suffered the injury during Wednesday's game against the Brewers and will officially be placed on the injured list ahead of the Mets' home opener Friday versus the Marlins. Francisco Alvarez is already on his way to New York and figures to share time at catcher with Tomas Nido while also drawing starts at DH. If the estimated timeline proves to be accurate, Narvaez won't be an option again before mid-June.

EDGE Analysis

Narvaez was sent for imaging scans after making an early exit from Wednesday's contest due to discomfort in his left calf. Martino notes that top prospect Francisco Alvarez has already been summoned to New York and could be active at catcher for the Mets' rescheduled home opener Friday versus the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Narvaez felt something in the calf during his last plate appearance and was taken out in the final frame. He'll be examined but is being referred to as day-to-day for now. If Narvaez winds up having to miss some time, it could clear the way for a Francisco Alvarez promotion.

Narvaez is not in the Mets' starting lineup Tuesday.
