Soto (hand) is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
Analysis:Soto was plunked on his right hand in the ninth inning Saturday, but X-rays were negative and he will tough it out for the Mets' season finale. Now a five-time All-Star, Soto has an OPS north of .900 for the fourth consecutive season, though a couple of IL stints ate into his counting stats in 2026.
