Brian Serven hit a pair of two-run homers — his first two major league hits — to lead the Colorado Rockies over the New York Mets 11-3 for a doubleheader splitMAY 21, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Swipes first bag of season Guillorme went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and his first stolen base of the year in Thursday's extra-inning win over the Cardinals.
Impact Getting the start at second base and hitting eighth, Guillorme put together a productive night. The 27-year-old utility player has begun to see more consistent action thanks to a hot streak that has seen him slash .323/.382/.484 through 34 plate appearances in May with a homer, a steal, three runs and three RBI.

Gets third start in four games Guillorme will start at second base and bat eighth in Thursday's game against the Cardinals.
Impact Guillorme will close out the homestand with a second consecutive start and his third in four games, but he'll likely see his playing time take a hit when the Mets begin a three-game series in Colorado on Friday. Starling Marte (personal) is on track to be activated from the bereavement list Friday, and his return will result in Jeff McNeil moving from the outfield to an everyday role at second base.

Knocks first homer Guillorme went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against Atlanta.
Impact Guillorme drew a start at second base and hit eighth with Mark Canha drawing a day off and Jeff McNeil shifting to the outfield as a result. Guillorme moved up a slot on the depth chart after Robinson Cano was designated for assignment, and he has now started three of the team's last five games. He took advantage of the opportunity Wednesday by taking Darren O'Day yard for his first homer of the season in the ninth inning. Guillorme is now hitting .243/.364/.405 across 45 plate appearances on the campaign.

Scores twice Sunday Guillorme went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact Getting the start at second base and hitting seventh, Guillorme found himself in the right place at the right time all day, crossing the plate on a bases-loaded hit-by-pitch in the seventh inning and an error by Arizona third baseman Sergio Alcantara in the eighth. Guillorme has started to see more action over the last week and has responded, going 5-for-11 with three walks and four runs scored over his last four starts, all of which have come at the keystone. With Robinson Cano struggling and Jeff McNeil splitting his time between second base and left field, Guillorme could accumulate enough plate appearances to have some value in NL-only and deep mixed formats, but his career .259/.356/.324 slash line in the majors highlights his limits as a hitter.

Miguel Cabrera's 3,000th hit only part of his lasting legacy
As Miguel Cabrera reaches another milestone with 3,000 hits, his Venezuelan countrymen tell Jake Mintz about his impact on them.APRIL 23, 2022
Still looking for first hit Guillorme got the start at second base Sunday and hit ninth, going 0-for-3 with a walk in a win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact The 27-year-old utility infielder has seen action at three different positions already this season as Mets manager Buck Showalter tries to keep his starters fresh, but Guillorme's gone 0-for-12 with a pair of walks. Given his career .252/.348/.316 slash line, he would have minimal fantasy value even if he did find his way into a bigger role.

Reaches deal with Mets Guillorme agreed Tuesday with the Mets on a one-year, $875,000 contract to avoid arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Impact The 27-year-old was arbitration-eligible for the first time coming off a 2021 campaign in which he submitted a .685 OPS across 156 plate appearances over his 69 games with the Mets. He's expected to fill a utility role in the infield throughout the 2022 season.

Scratched from lineup The Mets scratched Guillorme from the starting lineup for Sunday's game in Atlanta, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The Mets haven't clarified whether Guillorme's removal from the lineup was the result of an injury, or simply a last-minute change from manager Luis Rojas. In any case, Jose Peraza will step in at second base for Guillorme, who has gone 1-for-15 at the dish while appearing in 11 games since being activated from the 10-day injured list Aug. 31.

Impact The infielder returns after missing a month with a strained left hamstring. Javier Baez and Francisco Lindor's returns will restrict Guillorme to a bench role despite his impressive .293/.406/.345 slash line in 139 plate appearances this season. He takes the roster spot of Brandon Drury, whom the Mets optioned Tuesday.
