Returns to lineup Sunday Marte (illness) is back in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Remains on bench Marte will sit for the second straight game Saturday against San Francisco.

Impact Marte's off day in Friday's series opener seemed like a routine one, but the fact that he's sitting again Saturday suggests he may be dealing with a minor injury or illness. Alternatively, the Mets could be cutting his playing time as the 34-year-old's disappointing season continues. Marte finished April with an 81 wRC+ and followed that up with another 81 wRC+ in May and a negligibly better 84 wRC+ in June. Jeff McNeil will move out to right field Saturday, with Luis Guillorme starting at second base.
