NEW YORK — The Mets have added infielders Robinson Cano and Jeff McNeil to the 10-day injured list.

Manager Mickey Callaway announced the moves Thursday morning before the finale of a four-game series against the Washington Nationals.

Cano strained his left quad running out a grounder in the third inning of a 6-1 win Wednesday night. He had an MRI during the game, which showed a low-grade strain.

McNeil has a tight left hamstring, which he thinks occurred while trying to steal second base in the ninth inning of a 6-5 win Tuesday. New York hasn’t sent him for any image testing, and Callaway and McNeil described the IL move as precautionary.

Luis Guillorme and Ryan O’Rourke were recalled from Triple-A Syracuse.
