InjuryFantasy impact
The first baseman has moved into the Mets' everyday lineup and is producing at a high clip.
Mark Vientos has settled into the cleanup spot for the Mets, batting behind Juan Soto. Through 24 games this season, the 26-year-old first baseman is 18-for-76 with 2 home runs and 8 RBIs. In May, he has driven in 14 runs, tied for fourth in baseball.
The role reflects New York's injury situation up the lineup. Vientos attributed his shift from spring struggles to everyday production to the natural rhythm of a baseball season, rather than any mechanical overhaul.
