Mets' Starling Marte: Out Monday with forearm injury

Marte (forearm) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

He'll be on the bench for a second day in a row while he tends to a forearm injury, which he suffered when he was hit by a pitch in Saturday's game against the Phillies. The Mets are viewing Marte as day-to-day, and the expectation is that he'll avoid a stint on the injured list. Jesse Winker will cover right field in Marte's stead Monday.
