Brandon Nimmo and Mark Vientos were both out of lineup Saturday against the Los Angeles Dodgers after injuries took them out of action the night prior in the series opener. Mark Vientos could be available off the bench later in the game, but it sounds unlikely that Nimmo will be able to play in the series.

Third baseman Mark Vientos was scratched from the New York Mets' lineup Friday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers because of abdominal soreness, and left fielder Brandon Nimmo exited the game with a stiff neck.

Mets third baseman Mark Vientos is day-to-day with abdominal soreness, manager Carlos Mendoza said after Friday's 7-5 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 13 innings.
