Fantasy Impact:

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Winker's back "locked up" during Thursday's game. An update on the severity of the injury will come after the club receives MRI results, but there's a good chance he lands on the injured list. In his absence, Mark Vientos will likely take over as the team's designated hitter.
