J.D. DAVIS NEWS

Sitting due to hip issue Davis (hip) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.

Impact The Mets and Marlins are both facing quick turnarounds with Monday's starting at 1:10 p.m. ET, so it's not a major surprise that Davis will be on the bench after exiting the second game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Yankees when he was struck on the left hip by a pitch. Luis Guillorme will cover third base while Davis rests up.
