Mets' Starling Marte: Expected back after ASB
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Friday that the results of Marte's (knee) MRI were "very encouraging," and the Mets expect Marte to return after the All-Star break, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.
Marte was placed on the injured list July 7 due to a bruised right knee, but he may not miss more than the required 10 days. The outfielder is slashing .270/.353/.387 in 188 plate appearances this season.

Mets' Starling Marte: Lands on injured list
The Mets placed Marte on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to July 7, due to a right knee bruise.
The veteran outfielder has been playing through the injury for a while, but the issue flared up after he started in the outfield Sunday for the fifth time all season. According to Laura Albanese of Newsday, manager Carlos Mendoza said Marte is expected to be back shortly after the All-Star break.

Mets' Starling Marte: Getting knee checked out
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said after Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Yankees that Marte will get evaluated after his knee "flared up" in the ninth inning, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Marte was in the lineup for the fourth time in the last five games but was making just his fifth start of the season in the outfield while Brandon Nimmo served as the Mets' designated hitter. The 36-year-old provided a spark from the top of the order over his five plate appearances with three base hits and his fifth stolen base of the season, but the flareup of his chronic knee issue now clouds his availability heading into the All-Star break. Even if Marte is able to quickly bounce back from the knee problem, his playing time could soon trend downward with Jesse Winker (oblique) expected to return from the injured list at some point during the upcoming week.

Mets' Starling Marte: On bench Sunday
Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Marte has been a lineup regular of late and has an .865 OPS through 11 games in June, but he'll take a seat Sunday. Francisco Lindor is resting his legs as the designated hitter while Luisangel Acuna receives a start at shortstop.

Mets' Starling Marte: Season-high three RBI in loss
Marte went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a walk in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Rays.
The three RBI set a season high for Marte, who is heating up at the dish lately. Over his last 30 at-bats, Marte is hitting .333 with one home run, two doubles, four RBI and eight runs scored. Marte has essentially been functioning as New York's primary designated hitter while Mark Vientos (hamstring) and Jesse Winker (oblique) have been sidelined, so he has a short-term boost in fantasy appeal.

Mets' Starling Marte: Hits fourth homer
Marte went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and two runs scored during Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Marte picked up his first multi-hit game since May, reaching in four of five plate appearances Thursday. That included his fourth home run of the season and first in June. The 36-year-old, who entered the game with just four hits in his last 17 at-bats, will hope this game can get him going as his current batting average of .240 in 104 at-bats is on track for the lowest of his career.

Mets' Starling Marte: Launches third homer
Marte went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's win over the Rockies.
Getting the start at DH and batting sixth against Kyle Freeland, Marte took the southpaw deep in the fourth inning for his third homer of the season. It was the 36-year-old's first start since May 24, and while he's being deployed in a short-side platoon role right now, Marte's been productive in May when he's gotten an opportunity, slashing .316/.422/.421 through 46 plate appearances on the month with one homer, one steal, four runs and four RBI.

Mets' Starling Marte: Retreating to bench Sunday
Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.
Though Brandon Nimmo (neck) remains on the bench for the series finale, Marte will take a seat after starting in each of the Mets' last three games and going 3-for-10 with two walks, an RBI and a run. Assuming Nimmo doesn't require a stint on the injured list and is back in the lineup within the next few days, the Mets will likely continue to deploy Marte primarily against left-handed pitching.

Mets' Starling Marte: Not playing regularly
Marte will serve as the Mets' designated hitter and No. 6 batter in Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Marte had been occupying the short side of a platoon at DH with Jesse Winker (oblique) until the latter landed on the injured list Monday. Winker's absence hasn't opened up additional playing time for Marte though, as the veteran has been on the bench for each of the Mets' last three matchups against a right-handed starter. He'll get the nod Sunday versus southpaw Matthew Boyd, but manager Carlos Mendoza looks like he'll rotate other players through the DH spot against righties until Winker returns.

Mets' Starling Marte: Grabbing seat
Marte is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Arizona.
Marte is set to be the Mets' primary designated hitter while Jesse Winker (oblique) is sidelined, but he'll get a breather in Wednesday's matinee. Brandon Nimmo will be the club's DH, while Jeff McNeil patrols left field.

Mets' Starling Marte: Nabs steal Sunday
Marte went 2-for-3 with two RBI and a stolen base in a 5-4 loss to the Cardinals in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader.
Marte opened the doubleheader on the bench for Game 1 before starting Game 2 in right field to give Juan Soto a break from defensive duties. Marte is up to three steals over 23 games this season, though his .193/.299/.333 slash line is nothing special. The outfielder has been in a part-time role for much of 2025, but he could have a clearer path to at-bats either at designated hitter or in the corner outfield after Jesse Winker (side) exited Game 1 on Sunday. Winker is expected to require a trip to the injured list.

Mets' Starling Marte: Homers in win
Marte went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.
Marte helped pad the Mets' early lead with a two-run homer in the third to put them up 6-0. It was his second home run of the season, with his other one coming back on March 31. Marte now has four RBI over his last three games and has reached base in four straight. For the year, he's slashing just .184/.305/.347 with 10 RBI, seven runs, two steals and a 4:11 BB:K in 59 plate appearances.

Mets' Starling Marte: Set to lose work with Winker back
Marte is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
Marte had started four of the previous five games at designated hitter, but the surge in playing time seems to be result of Jesse Winker having battled flu-like symptoms for much of the past week. With Winker back in lineup for the first time since last Monday, Marte looks set to occupy the short side of a platoon at DH moving forward. Marte is batting .192 with a home run and a stolen base over his 32 plate appearances on the season.

Mets' Starling Marte: Sitting Sunday
Marte is not in the Mets' starting lineup against the Athletics on Sunday.
Marte will begin Sunday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-9 with two RBI and three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Mark Vientos will serve as the designated hitter while Luisangel Acuna and Brett Baty start at second and third base, respectively.

Mets' Starling Marte: Goes yard from leadoff spot
Marte went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 10-4 win over the Marlins.
Making a spot start at the leadoff position for Francisco Lindor (personal), Marte went yard off Marlins right-hander Cal Quantrill in the opening frame as the designated hitter. It's unclear how often Marte will play in the outfield in 2025 after he was limited in spring training by a right knee bone bruise, and he's unlikely to bat first once Lindor rejoins the team. That said, Marte's fantasy appeal will remain capped while operating on the weak side of a platoon at DH with the left-handed-hitting Jesse Winker.

Mets' Starling Marte: Making spring debut in outfield
Marte is making his first start in the outfield this spring Friday, handling right field in the Mets' game versus the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Marte's first six contests this spring all came at designated hitter as he eased into things following his recovery from a bone bruise in his right knee, but he's now ready to roam the outfield. The 36-year-old is expected to serve in a short-side platoon role at designated hitter this season but should see the occasional start in the outfield, as well.

Mets' Starling Marte: Feels strong in spring debut
Marte was pleased with the way his knee responded while running the bases during Monday's exhibition against the Cardinals, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Marte slotted in as the team's designated hitter Monday and expects to progress to outfield play at some point over the next few days as the club eases him back into action. The 36-year-old laced a double during the second inning and said he had no trouble reaching second base and even thought about trying for third, per Feinsand. It'll be worth keeping an eye on how he handles the field later in the week, but all signs point to Marte being a full go for Opening Day.
