Daniel Vogelbach Stats

New York Mets designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The slugger struggles against lefties, and Atlanta is deploying southpaw Max Fried for the series finale. Pete Alonso will start in his place. Vogelbach is slashing .270/.379/.535 with 15 homers, 39 RBI, 41 walks, and 66 strikeouts against right-handers in 2022. Presumably, he'll be available off the bench if Atlanta goes to a right-hander out of its bullpen.

New York Mets designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach hit his first home run as a member of the team Wednesday, a towering grand slam off of Washington Nationals relief pitcher Jordan Weems in a 9-5 victory. Vogelbach has been very productive since coming over from the Pirates, slashing .308/.471/.500 in 33 plate appearances. He now has 13 homers, 32 runs scored, and 38 RBI with a .790 OPS in 310 plate appearances this season. He should only play against righties, and that makes him a very solid option in fantasy leagues with daily lineup changes.
