Brett Baty Back in the Lineup on Tuesday
As expected, New York Mets infielder/outfielder Brett Baty (thumb) is back in the starting lineup on Tuesday, playing right field and batting fifth against the Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Zac Gallen at Citi Field, according to MLB.com. Baty jammed his thumb while sliding on Saturday against the San Francisco Giants and did not play on Sunday. He's ready to return on Tuesday, though, following the team's day off on Monday. The 26-year-old left-handed hitter is still searching for his first home run of the 2026 season as he heads into his ninth game after hitting a career-high 18 homers in 130 games played for the Mets in 2025. Baty has so far gone 8-for-33 (.242) with two doubles, a triple, four RBI, six runs scored, and a stolen base in his eight games. He has two hits in three career at-bats against Gallen with a 1.334 OPS.
