Mets' Mark Vientos: Won't play Sunday due to injury
Rotowire
Vientos (groin) told reporters after Saturday's 3-0 win over the Cardinals that he will be out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
Vientos was replaced by Brett Baty in the fifth inning with groin discomfort, and the former believed that was due to cramping from dehydration. Vientos didn't seem too concerned about the injury, but he'll be sent for imaging if he's still sore in the morning. Baty figures to draw the start at third base in Vientos' absence Sunday.

Mets' Mark Vientos: Goes yard for first time in 2025
Rotowire
Vientos went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Cardinals.
It was a much-needed first homer of the year for Vientos, who took Cardinals right-hander Andre Pallante yard to open the scoring Thursday in the second inning. Vientos is slashing a dismal .152/.253/.258 with four doubles, five RBI and six runs scored through 66 at-bats (18 games), but fantasy managers should try to stay patient with the slugging corner infielder. As long as Vientos is hitting in the heart of New York's star-studded lineup, he should see plenty of RBI opportunities going forward.

Mets' Mark Vientos: Taking seat amid struggles
Rotowire
Vientos is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Vientos will get his first day off of the season after struggling to a .145/.254/.210 batting line while failing to hit a home run through 71 plate appearances. Brett Baty will get the nod at third base Wednesday, but he's mustered a lowly .361 OPS so far this season and likely doesn't present a major threat to Vientos' standing atop the depth chart.

Mets' Mark Vientos: Early-season struggles continue
Rotowire
Vientos went 0-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout in Friday's win over the A's.
After a breakout 2024, Vientos has stumbled out of the gates this season with a .109/.241/.152 slash line, zero homers and only one RBI through his first 54 plate appearances. The 25-year-old is showing signs of finding his timing at the plate, however -- he's reached base nine times in the last six games with six walks and three hits, although all three knocks have been singles.
Vientos went 1-for-2 with a walk and a two-run home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals.
After Francisco Lindor reached on an error to lead off the bottom of the first inning for the Mets, Vientos crushed a Jake Irvin pitch over the fence in left-center field. It was the third baseman's first long ball of the spring, and Vientos has had a solid camp so far, batting .273 (6-for-22) with a 1:3 BB:K in eight appearances. After a breakout 2024, New York is counting on the 25-year-old to handle a spot in the heart of the batting order this season.
