Mark Vientos: Breaking News
Playing regularly at first base
Vientos will start at first base and bat cleanup in Thursday's game against the Nationals. Vientos appeared to fade into a part-time role a couple of weeks ago, but he's re-emerged as a more stable member of the lineup since Jorge Polanco (wrist) was placed on the injured list April 18. Vientos will claim his ninth start in 11 games Thursday, despite producing a lackluster .231/.333/.346 slash line to go with one home run and two RBI over the prior 10 contests.
Sitting again amid slump
Vientos is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Cubs. For the second straight game, the Mets will utilize Brett Baty at first base and MJ Melendez at designated hitter. Vientos is hitless over his last seven games and has seen his season OPS drop from 1.236 all the way down to .596 over that span.
