Zimmerman (hamstring) is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of CSN reports. Zimmerman was originally slated to start at third base Tuesday, but he pushed his nagging hamstring a bit more than anticipated in Saturday's game, so the team will take extra caution with the playoffs looming. Zimmerman did not play Sunday, and even with an off day Monday, he'll remain out of the lineup against the Mets and starter Bartolo Colon. The good news is Zimmerman went through a full workout Tuesday afternoon and came away without any issues.
