Cespedes (quad) is out of the lineup Sunday against the Phillies, Marc Carig of Newsday reports.

Cespedes was experiencing quad tightness after Saturday's game, so the Mets will give him the day off. The 30-year-old slugger has had a fantastic week at the plate, as he's hit .370/.452/.889 with four home runs and eight RBI over the last seven days. Cespedes was on the DL with a quadricep injury earlier in the season, so it's likely that the Mets are being cautious with him. Consider him day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Marlins.
