Brett Baty - Page 14 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Out with mild groin strain Baty was diagnosed Thursday with a mild left groin strain and is considered day-to-day, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Impact Baty aggravated his groin while running the bases in the Mets' win over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday and is not in the lineup for Thursday's series finale, though it sounds like he might be able to avoid the 10-day injured list. Mark Vientos is playing third base for New York on Thursday as Daniel Vogelbach fills the DH role.

Not in lineup, getting scans Baty is not in the lineup Thursday versus Arizona as he undergoes imaging scans on his left groin, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Danny Mendick has joined the Mets in New York in case Baty requires a stint on the 10-day injured list. The young third baseman felt discomfort in his groin while running the bases in Wednesday's win over the Diamondbacks and manager Buck Showalter revealed afterward that it has been a lingering issue. Mark Vientos will handle the hot corner in Thursday's series finale.

Exits with groin soreness Baty was removed from Wednesday's game against Arizona due to left groin soreness, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Baty was taken out of the game by a trainer ahead of the seventh inning and will have imaging done Thursday in order to diagnose his injury. Until the results of his MRI come back, Baty should be considered day-to-day.

Sits down Saturday Baty isn't in the Mets' lineup Saturday against the Mariners.

Impact Baty went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts in his return to the big leagues Friday, and he'll hand third base duties over to Mark Vientos for Saturday's contest.

Officially back in big leagues Baty was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Impact Baty hit .246/.329/.493 with five home runs in 17 games with Syracuse after being sent down last month. The 23-year-old has hit only .212/.284/.332 to this point at the major-league level but should see regular playing time at third base -- at least against right-handed pitching -- down the stretch. Baty is at the hot corner and batting eighth on Friday against the Mariners.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returning to majors Friday Baty will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday when major-league rosters expand, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

Impact Baty has struggled to a .212/.284/.332 batting line in 353 big-league plate appearances since his debut in late 2022, but the 23-year-old was a preseason top-100 prospect and continues to crush it at the Triple-A level. The out-of-contention Mets might as well give him regular looks at third base as they play out the string.

Mets option Brett Baty to Triple-A, move Starling Marte (groin) to IL Every day seems to be getting worse for the New York Mets

AUGUST 7, 2023 • DEADSPIN.COM

Mets option 3B Brett Baty to Triple A Baty was called up in mid-April and has been New York's everyday third baseman since.

AUGUST 7, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Optioned to Triple-A Baty was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Baty was hitting .075 with a 34 percent strikeout rate over his last 40 at-bats. Jonathan Arauz is getting promoted in a corresponding move, and Daniel Vogelbach could also see more playing time in the short term, as Mark Vientos will presumably play more third base than designated hitter in the coming days.

Homers again Wednesday Baty went 1-for-3 with a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the White Sox.

Impact The 23-year-old third baseman went yard for the second straight day, this time taking Touki Toussaint deep for a solo shot in the third inning. Baty is batting just .200 (7-for-35) in July with a 1:14 BB:K, but he still has significant upside and an everyday role for the Mets if he can begin to solve big-league pitching.

Impact Mets manager Buck Showalter said Baty might still be available off the bench Thursday, but there's a good chance the team holds Baty out so he can rest his hamstring. The concern level surrounding Baty's injury seems low, and he should be considered day-to-day going forward.
