The Mets don't expect Jesse Winker to return this season, manager Carlos Mendoza tells reporters (including Mike Puma of The New York Post). Winker has been sidelined since the middle of July with a lower back injury. He began a rehab assignment last week but has been shut back down from baseball activity, suggesting he suffered some kind of setback.

Jesse Winker was removed from the first game of a doubleheader against the Orioles for back tightness after just one at-bat, continuing his injury struggles.
