Starling Marte Back In Grapefruit League Lineup
2 years agoNew York Mets outfielder Starling Marte (head) is returning to the Grapefruit League lineup on Tuesday against right-hander Cade Cavalli and the Washington Nationals. Marte was hit in the head by a pitch in spring action on Sunday, but he avoided a serious injury and will be back in there. The 34-year-old Dominican has played in only two spring games so far while being eased in after having offseason groin surgery. The two-time All-Star was limited to 118 games in his first year in the Big Apple in 2022, and he hit .292/.347/.468 with an .814 OPS, 16 home runs, 63 RBI, 76 runs and 18 stolen bases in 505 plate appearances and 118 games. Marte also dealt with a broken finger, so durability issues are a concern for fantasy managers.
