Luis Guillorme Stats

The New York Mets placed infielder Luis Guillorme (groin) on the 10-day injured list due to a left groin strain on Monday. He is expected to miss three to four weeks. The 27-year-old suffered the injury during Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies while he was running the bases. Guillorme has been the team's primary third baseman lately. Eduardo Escobar is getting the start at the hot corner on Monday and he is likely to see a significant increase in playing time with Guillorme out. While there had been speculation that the Mets could call up third base prospect Brett Baty to replace Guillorme, manager Buck Showalter put a rest to that speculation on Monday. Showalter said that neither Baty nor fellow prospect Mark Vientos were options to join the team at this time.

New York Mets infielder Luis Guillorme (leg) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. He came up limping after running around the bases in the fourth inning. Eduardo Escobar came into the contest, but is dealing with a oblique injury himself. This appears to be a precautionary move to get Guillorme out of the contest. Fantasy managers should check back later in the day for another update on his status.

New York Mets skipper Buck Showalter is comfortable moving forward with a platoon situation at third base between Eduardo Escobar and Luis Guillorme. Escobar was out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against Washington Nationals right-hander Anibal Sanchez, and the 33-year-old veteran switch-hitter figures to be on the short side of the platoon moving forward. That means he'll likely only be at third base when the Mets are facing a left-handed pitcher. Escobar is hitting just .199 (48-for-241) against righties this year while going 30-for-115 (.261) with six of his 12 homers against southpaws. Meanwhile, the lefty hitting Guillorme is batting .312 (49-for-157) with both of his home runs and nine RBI against righties in 2022.
