Mets' Harrison Bader: Sitting Tuesday

Bader is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Baltimore.

Bader is on the bench for the second time in three games, giving way to Tyrone Taylor in center field Tuesday. Considering Starling Marte has returned from an IL stint to man right field most nights, Bader could cede more work to Taylor in center field. Bader is in the midst of a 0-for-12 slump and has just a .214 batting average in August, a span in which Taylor is hitting .270.
