Impact Baty was responsible for two of the seven runs the Mets tagged Sandy Alcantara for, with the former smacking a solo homer in the third inning before bringing Jacob Young home on a sacrifice fly in the fifth. Baty has driven in at least one run in four of his last five games, going 5-for-13 with three doubles, two home runs, nine RBI and three runs scored in that span.

Taking seat Monday Baty is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

Impact Baty will take a seat for the second day in a row, after he had started in each of the Mets' prior four contests. With the Orioles picking up Luis Robert via a waiver claim Monday and with Juan Soto likely to be limited to the designated-hitter spot following his recent return from the injured list, Baty could end up getting fairly steady playing time versus right-handed pitching in a corner-outfield spot.

Taking seat Sunday Baty is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Baty will hit the bench after he started in each of the last three games at three different positions. Though he doesn't have a home at any one position, Baty should continue to play fairly regularly against right-handed pitching while Juan Soto (calf) lacks a clear timeline for a return.

Hitting bench against righty Baty is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

Impact Though he'll take a seat against righty Walker Buehler in the series opener, Baty has maintained a strong-side platoon role for much of August. Baty doesn't have a home at any one position, but his ability to play multiple spots on the diamond and in the outfield had helped him pick up starts in each of the Mets' previous eight matchups with righties.

Launches grand slam in win Baty went 1-for-3 with a grand slam and a walk in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta.

Impact Baty broke things open in the first inning with his first career grand slam off Bryce Elder. The 26-year-old Baty has gone just 4-for-27 over his past 10 games, but two of those hits have left the yard. On the season, he's slashing .215/.286/.330 with eight homers, 38 RBI, 42 runs scored and five steals across 379 plate appearances.

Goes deep Wednesday Baty went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Guardians.

Impact Baty, who was making his first start in four games, opened the scoring in the third inning with an opposite-field shot off Tanner Bibee, his seventh homer of the year. Baty had gone just 3-for-22 (.136) in eight games prior to Wednesday as he'd seen his playing time diminish with the returns of Luis Robert and Jorge Polanco. Overall, Baty's slashing .219/.290/.330 across 362 plate appearances this season with 41 runs scored, 32 RBI and five stolen bases.

Heading to bench Sunday Baty is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Baty will hit the bench Sunday after he made starts at three different infield positions in the Mets' previous three games. The 26-year-old doesn't have a clear path to steady playing time at any one position, but his ability to play all over the infield as well as both corner-outfield spots should allow him to continue seeing at least semi-regular at-bats versus right-handed pitching.

Starts Wednesday, but could lose PT Baty will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

Impact With Juan Soto and Luis Robert resting for the series finale in Milwaukee, Baty will pick up a start in the outfield alongside A.J. Ewing and Carson Benge. Robert's return from the IL earlier this week looks like it could result in Baty fading into more of a part-time role, as the Mets already sent the 26-year-old to the bench against right-hander Brandon Sproat during Tuesday's 4-0 win. Baty has produced a palatable .273/.293/.436 slash line thus far in July, but he's still holding down an underwhelming .614 OPS over 340 plate appearances on the season.
