The New York Mets recall Jared Young from Triple-A Syracuse after placing infielder Brett Baty on the 10-day IL. Baty will miss the last two games of the season after straining his right oblique during Friday’s game against the Miami Marlins.

“It hurts a lot, but I’m going to root on my teammates and we’re going to try to go to the postseason today and tomorrow,” Baty said during an interview with SNY on Saturday.

Baty Went Down in the First

Heading into the three-game series against Miami, Baty was batting .254 with a .748 OPS. He had also recorded 18 home runs, 50 RBI, and eight stolen bases. During his last seven games, Baty hit a home run and three RBI. He recorded three home runs, seven RBI, and two stolen bases in his previous 15 appearances.

“I thought I played great,” Baty added. “Helped the ballclub win, that’s all I was trying to do. Put together good at-bats and play good defense.”

Despite the solid statistics, the infielder exited the game against the Marlins after the first inning due to an awkward swing attempt and a long throw he made to Pete Alonso to record the final out of the inning. He was replaced at third base by Ronny Mauricio.

Mets Recall Young

Manager Carlos Mendoza said Baty’s injury is a “big blow” to the team.

“It’s a big blow, but we’ve got other guys that are going to get an opportunity and they’re going to have to step up,” Mendoza added.

The Mets manager also noted that the club decided to recall Young, who will be a pinch-hitter. Mauricio will start at third base. Young, 30, recorded four home runs and six RBI with a .190 average and .739 OPS. Mauricio, 24, has hit six home runs and 10 RBI with four stolen bases. He has a .228 average and a .667 OPS.

Young has hit a home run and two RBI in his last seven appearances. Mauricio recorded one hit in that same span.

The Mets decided to recall Young before Saturday’s game against the Marlins. The game will be at 4:10 p.m. Eastern on SNY.
