Mets' Daniel Vogelbach: On bench again Sunday
Vogelbach is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
Vogelbach finds himself on the bench for a second straight game after he served as the Mets' designated hitter in each of the prior three contests, going 1-for-10 with a walk and a run scored during that stretch. Though the lefty-hitting Vogelbach will remain on the bench versus left-handed pitching, he looks like he'll be part of a timeshare at DH with Mark Vientos against righties for the time being.

Vogelbach has held a strong-side platoon role at designated hitter for most of the season, but he could face a threat for work against right-handed pitching with the Mets bringing aboard power-hitting corner infielder Mark Vientos from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

Mets' Daniel Vogelbach: On bench against lefty
Vogelbach will sit against lefty Austin Gomber and the Rockies on Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Vogelbach has yet to start against a southpaw this season, and given his career .133/.252/.222 slash line against same-sided pitching, that's unlikely to change anytime soon. Pete Alonso will rest his legs as the designated hitter Saturday while Mark Canha starts at first base.

Mets' Daniel Vogelbach: Sluggish spring so far
Vogelbach has gone 6-for-23 in Grapefruit League play with zero home runs and a 0:10 BB:K through eight appearances.
The 30-year-old posted a solid .829 OPS in 183 plate appearances with the Mets last season after being acquired from the Pirates, and Vogelbach heads into 2023 expected to fill the strong side of a platoon at DH. His spring numbers aren't encouraging, but his career .238/.364/.458 slash line against right-handed pitching with 61 homers in roughly two full seasons worth of plate appearances offers a better glimpse at his likely production.
