Terry Collins on Lagares, Plawecki, d'Arnaud, Wheeler, health

Terry Collins addressed a series of topics before Tuesday's game, including his health after his hospital stay. Here's what he had to say:

  • Juan Lagares was expected to start in the lineup on Tuesday with Michael Conforto out, but is sitting due to a "bad tooth," Collins said.
  • Travis d'Arnaud is expected to catch again on Tuesday in the minors and a decision will be made on him soon.
  • Zack Wheeler will likely begin his rehab assignment this week, likely with the St. Lucie Mets.
  • Kevin Plawecki is struggling with his part-time duties, Collins said.
