NOVEMBER 3, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Recovering from surgery Marte underwent core muscle surgery Tuesday and is expected to be ready for the start of spring training.

Impact The 34-year-old is facing an eight-week recovery timeline, so he shouldn't have any issues being ready for the beginning of camp in February. Marte suffered the injury during the second half of the season, though he was able to play through the issue until a fractured finger put him on the injured list in early September. The veteran outfielder returned for the playoffs and went 2-for-12 with a walk and two stolen bases during the loss to the Padres in the wild-card series. Marte played in 118 games during his first season with the Mets and posted a .292/.347/.468 slash line with 16 home runs, 63 RBI and 18 steals.

Rejoins starting nine Marte will start in right field and bat sixth Friday in Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series against the Padres.

Impact Marte was reinstated from the injured list earlier in the day and will immediately re-enter the lineup for New York. The veteran outfielder is apparently still experiencing some pain in his fractured right middle finger when batting and throwing, per Tim Healey of Newsday, so the Mets figure to keep a close eye on him in his return to game action.

Impact The veteran outfielder has been sidelined for the past month by a fracture in the middle finger of his right hand, but he apparently showed enough in his return to baseball activities this week to warrant a spot on the wild-card roster. It's unclear if Marte will immediately reclaim his starting role coming off the absence, but he would still provide a boost for the Mets by being available as a bench piece.

Resumes activities Marte (finger) was involved in baseball activities Thursday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Impact After landing on the injured list Sept. 10 with a fracture in the middle finger of his right hand, Marte is now showing signs of improvement. Though he might still be a few days from returning to the field, it is reasonable to think Marte could be included on the Mets' roster to open their NL Wild Card Series matchup with the Padres.

Done for regular season Mets manager Buck Showalter said Marte (finger) won't be ready to return from the 10-day injured list any sooner than Friday, depending on how he fares in workouts over the next fe...

Impact Showalter's comments confirm that Marte has been ruled out through the Mets' remaining three games of the regular season, but the outfielder will still have a shot at returning for the start of the wild-card round, which is set to begin Friday should the Mets not get a bye. While the skipper noted that Marte is making "a little progress" in his recovery from a non-displaced fracture of his right middle finger, the 33-year-old's return isn't considered imminent. Marte's ongoing absence should continue to open up playing time in the corner outfield for Tyler Naquin and Jeff McNeil.
