Daniel Vogelbach News
New York Mets first baseman Daniel Vogelbach has been non-tendered by the organization on Friday. This doesn't come as much of a surprise given Vogelbach's lack of success at the plate this past season. The 30-year-old slugger was likely going to make at least a few million through salary arbitration this offseason. He slashed .233/.339/.404 with 13 home runs and 48 RBI in 78 games with the Mets last season. His defense is below average and Vogelbach can really only hit off right-handed pitchers. There should be another organization willing to give him a chance as a designated hitter. However, it's unlikely that he'll be a viable fantasy option in most formats.
New York Mets first baseman Daniel Vogelbach will take a seat during Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The left-handed slugger will sit this game out with left-handed starter Cole Ragans on the mound for Kansas City. Vogelbach is 3-for-12 over his last four games, so he could use a break here. Mark Vientos is covering first base, while Pete Alonso serves as the designated hitter for Wednesday's contest.
New York Mets first baseman/designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach is serving as the designated hitter and is batting fifth for the Mets in the series opener against the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Taijuan Walker on Friday. Vogelbach is hitting just .230 (31-for-135) on the season, but he's been on a tear since the team gave him some time off to reset. In his last five games since June 16, he's gone 7-for-17 (.412) with two home runs, a double, seven RBI and four runs scored to earn a move up the batting order to begin the weekend. Infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil sees a drop down the order to seventh. Vogelbach has become a bit more attractive in DFS during his recent hot stretch.
