Guillorme is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Milwaukee.
Before he landed on the injured list Aug. 15, Guillorme had filled the strong side of a platoon at third base with Eduardo Escobar. However, the lefty-hitting Guillorme looks to have faded into a reserve role since his return from the groin injury a week ago, as Escobar has earned himself more work against right-handed pitching by producing at the plate. Escobar will stick in the lineup Monday with reigning Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes on the hill for MIlwaukee.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Rejoins active roster
Rotowire
The Mets reinstated Guillorme (groin) from the 10-day injured list Monday.
Guillorme had been on the IL with a strained groin since Aug. 15. Having hit .283/.355/.357 and provided solid defense around the infield this season, the 27-year-old should get plenty of playing time for the remainder of the season, especially while Starling Marte (finger) is out of the lineup.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Nearing rehab assignment
Rotowire
Guillorme (groin) could begin a rehab assignment as early as Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Guillorme carried a three-week return timetable after landing on the injured list with a left groin strain Aug. 15, and he seems to be on track in his recovery process since he's closing in on a rehab assignment. Assuming he joins a minor-league affiliate Sunday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him rejoin the Mets sometime the following weekend.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Sitting out Monday
Rotowire
Guillorme is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.
The lefty-hitting Guillorme will take a seat against a right-handed starter (Justin Dunn), but he still appears to be holding down the strong side of platoon at third base with Eduardo Escobar, who is starting Monday for only the second time in the Mets' last eight games. Guillorme, meanwhile, was included in the lineup in each of the last seven contests, a stretch in which the Mets faced six right-handers and one southpaw. He recorded only five hits in 26 at-bats during that span, but the Mets value the smooth defense Guillorme brings in the infield.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Captures large-side platoon role
Rotowire
Guillorme will start at third base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.
Guillorme has now started at third base against a right-handed pitcher for the fourth time in the last five matchups, while Eduardo Escobar has played just once. The usage is an indication that the two will be deployed in a platoon at the hot corner moving forward, a reality that manager Buck Showalter acknowledged following Tuesday's loss to the Nationals, according to Tim Healey of Newsday. As the left-handed option in the platoon, Guillorme should see the larger share of playing time of the two and notice a spike in his fantasy value accordingly. Over his 176 plate appearances versus righties this season, Guillorme is slashing .312/.379/.395 with two home runs, nine RBI and 23 runs.

Guillorme is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.
Guillorme picked up three consecutive starts coming out of the All-Star break, but he'll find himself on the bench for both contests of the interleague series with the Yankees.

Rotowire
Guillorme went 2-for-3 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Monday's 4-1 win over Atlanta.
His eighth-inning solo shot off Darren O'Day, Guillorme's second homer of the year, gave the Mets a crucial insurance run after Atlanta had made it 2-1 in the bottom of the seventh.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Three hits in Sunday's loss
Rotowire
Guillorme went 3-for-4 in Sunday's loss to the Marlins.
The Mets managed only seven hits in total and none for extra bases in a shutout loss, so it's no surprise Guillorme's performance didn't lead to any real production. With Jeff McNeil headed to the paternity leave, Guillorme should get at least a couple more starts at the keystone to begin the week. and his .303/.374/.360 slash line on the season through 197 plate appearances could give him some appeal as a short-term or DFS option.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: On bench again Tuesday
Rotowire
Guillorme is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.
The lefty-hitting Guillorme is on the bench for the second game in a row, this time taking a seat versus a southpaw (Nick Lodolo) after he was out of the lineup Monday against a right-hander (Hunter Greene). Guillorme is a strong defender who has worked his way into an everyday role on the basis of showing major improvement at the plate this season, though regression has begun to set in for the 27-year-old. He's gone 2-for-26 over his last eight contests and could end up serving as more of a part-time player while he's slumping.
