The Mets placed the catcher on the 10-day injured list with a right thumb injury Tuesday afternoon, recalling Hayden Senger from Triple-A Syracuse to take his spot on the roster.

Francisco Alvarez is in pain after jamming his thumb sliding into second base.

"It’s been tough for him the last couple of months, especially when Alvy was down, and he got to play every day, but he’s a good player," manager Carlos Mendoza said of Torrens.
