\"New<\/p>\n

New York Mets<\/a>\u00a0third baseman<\/a>\u00a0Brett Baty took a while to heat up, but he\u2019s been a key piece for the team this season.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old slashed just .212\/.275\/.323 with nine homers and 34 RBIs over 108 games in 2023, his first full season. He improved to a .229\/.306\/.327 slash line last year, but he played just 50\u00a0MLB<\/a>\u00a0games as he split time between the big leagues and minor leagues.<\/p>\n

However, Baty found his rhythm at the top level in 2025. The 6-foot-3, 210-pounder entered Friday\u2019s matchup with the\u00a0Miami Marlins<\/a>\u00a0slashing .255\/.314\/.436 with 18 homers and 50 RBIs in 129 games. He also had a .276\/.323\/.466 slash line in September.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Unfortunately for Baty, though, he exited Friday\u2019s game early with an injury. New York later provided an update via its social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cBrett Baty was removed from today\u2019s game with right side soreness,\u201d the team said.<\/p>\n

Baty\u00a0went down the tunnel<\/a>\u00a0after grimacing following a swing and a throw from third base in the first inning, via SNY. He grounded out to second base in his only at-bat.<\/p>\n

Backup infielder Ronny Mauricio subbed in for Baty in the bottom of the second. New York can also use Mark Vientos, who\u2019s slashing .233\/.286\/.413 with 17 homers and 61 RBIs over 119 games, at third base if Baty misses time moving forward.<\/p>\n

Brett Baty Injury Comes at Unlucky Time for Mets<\/h2>\n

Side soreness isn\u2019t as bad as structural damage to a ligament, for example, but New York doesn\u2019t have much time for its players to heal. The\u00a0Cincinnati Reds<\/a>\u00a0entered Friday\u2019s slate just one game behind it for the third and final NL wild card spot, and the regular season ends on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Mets already have a laundry list of players who are\u00a0out for the season<\/a>, including\u00a0designated hitter<\/a>\u00a0Jesse Winker (back) as well as starting pitchers Tylor Megill (elbow), Griffin Canning (Achilles), and Frankie Montas (elbow), via\u00a0MLB.com<\/a>. Now, they may have to secure a playoff spot without another regular member of the lineup.<\/p>\n
