Harrison Bader in lineup Sunday

Harrison Bader is in the Mets lineup on Sunday against the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Bader is back in center field for the Mets. He is hitting .273 on the season with 13 RBI and eight stolen bases.


Luis Severino turned in a solid performance against the Giants, allowing just one earned run on two hits and three walks while striking out six over seven innings in Saturday's 7-2 loss.

Fantasy Impact: Despite his strong outing, the Mets' bats couldn't capitalize, leaving Severino with a no-decision. This season, Severino has maintained a respectable 3.22 ERA and 1.16 WHIP across 10 starts, though his 7.7 K/9 indicates a slight dip in strikeout rate compared to elite starters. His performance today, characterized by efficient pitching and control, should reassure fantasy managers about his reliability, even if his win potential is hampered by inconsistent run support from the Mets' lineup. Moving forward, Severino remains a solid option in fantasy rotations, particularly in leagues that value quality starts and WHIP.

Fantasy Impact: "He's our closer," Mendoza said. He also referred to Díaz as "one of our options" and said "we'll piece it together." It remains a fluid situation in the Mets bullpen.


Christian Scott delivered a solid performance, allowing two earned runs on just two hits and one walk while striking out four over six innings in Friday's 8-7 loss to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Despite a respectable outing that should have positioned the Mets for a win, the bullpen couldn't hold the line, leaving Scott with a no-decision. His season ERA now sits at 3.97 with a 1.10 WHIP, which are commendable numbers that suggest he's been more effective than his win-loss record indicates. Scott's ability to limit base runners and maintain a decent strikeout rate makes him a viable option in deeper fantasy leagues, though his lack of support for wins continues to dampen his overall value.

Pete Alonso went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in the Mets' 8-7 loss to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Despite the team's defeat, Alonso's performance, including his 12th homer of the season, provided a silver lining. His season batting average remains modest at .240, and while his power numbers are respectable, his overall production has been somewhat inconsistent, as reflected by his .336 wOBA and .245 BABIP. Fantasy managers should continue to value Alonso for his home run potential, but should also be wary of the fluctuations in his batting average and on-base skills. His power is a critical asset, yet his strikeout rate could be a concern for those in points leagues where strikeouts are penalized.

J.D. Martinez went 1-for-5 with a home run and an RBI in the Mets' 8-7 defeat to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact: Despite striking out three times, Martinez managed to contribute with his third homer of the season, which continues to bolster his slugging percentage. However, his high strikeout rate and low walk rate this season are concerning trends for fantasy managers. With a batting average of .289 and a BABIP of .404, there's potential for regression unless he can adjust his approach at the plate. Fantasy managers should monitor his performance closely, as his power can be a valuable asset, but his strikeouts could be a liability in formats that penalize them.

Francisco Lindor went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI as the Mets fell to the Giants 8-7.

Fantasy Impact: Despite the loss, Lindor's performance was a slight silver lining in an otherwise disappointing season marked by a batting average lingering around the Mendoza Line. His double and RBI in this game offer a glimpse of the offensive capabilities that Lindor possesses, but his season-long slump has certainly tempered expectations. With a .208 average and modest power numbers to date, fantasy managers might be growing weary, yet his ability to contribute in multiple categories could still make him a valuable asset in deeper leagues or formats that reward middle infielders. However, his current form suggests a cautious approach in relying on him as a consistent fantasy starter.
