Mark Vientos' Hitless Skid Continues

New York Mets infielder Mark Vientos is looking to take the next step as he navigates his fifth MLB season. The 26-year-old has cooled off after a strong start and has not recorded a hit in his last six games. Vientos is now slashing .263/.293/.395 with a .688 OPS through 12 games as he looks to break out of this early slump. He posted his best season in 2024 before taking a step back last year, but still showed flashes of power. If Vientos can regain his early-season form, fantasy managers should look to capitalize on a buy-low opportunity.

Mark Vientos May Be Limited to Part-Time Role in New York

New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos posted a breakout season in 2024, slugging 27 home runs in 454 plate appearances and carving out a role in the middle of the Mets lineup. However, the 26-year-old came crashing back down to earth in 2025, slashing .233/.289/.413 with 17 home runs, 61 RBI, 44 runs scored, and one stolen base. Vientos also graded out as one of the worst defensive third basemen in the big leagues, making it more difficult for the Mets to stick with him through his relative struggles at the plate. New York added former Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette in free agency this past winter with the plan to move him to the hot corner, eliminating a pathway to playing time for Vientos. Vientos should be in the mix at designated hitter in New York, but he could find himself in a rotation with infielders Brett Baty and Jorge Polanco. If Vientos can get back to the 14.1% barrel rate he posted in 2024, he could force his way into everyday playing time at DH. However, there are holes in his profile that lead to playing time questions, making him a risky bet for fantasy managers heading into 2026.

Mets Open to Trading Mark Vientos

The New York Mets are open to trading infielder/designated hitter Mark Vientos this winter, sources told Pat Ragazzo of Sports Illustrated. Vientos could draw plenty of interest, as he has four years of club control as a pre-arbitration player. He won't be a free agent until after the 2029 season. However, it remains to be seen how many MLB teams would be interested after Vientos regressed to a .233/.289/.413 slash line with a .702 OPS, 97 OPS+, 17 home runs, 61 RBI, and a -0.2 bWAR in 121 games in 2025. The year prior, Vientos broke out with 27 long balls, 71 RBI, an .837 OPS, and 3.0 bWAR in 111 games. Brett Baty is likely to be the starter at third in 2026, and the Mets just signed Jorge Polanco to take over at first base to replace Pete Alonso, who signed with Baltimore in free agency. Vientos was able to drop his strikeout rate to a career-low 24.8% in 2025, but he isn't great defensively and still has a lot to prove.

Mets Listening on Mark Vientos as Trade Deadline Nears

The New York Mets have been discussing third baseman Mark Vientos in trade talks this week, and rival executives think that the team is willing to move him by this Thursday's July 31 deadline, league sources told SNY's Andy Martino. The Mets aren't looking to move any of their young infielders -- they've also received interest in Brett Baty and Ronny Mauricio -- but rival executives think Vientos is more available than Baty and Mauricio. The 25-year-old hit 27 home runs with an .837 in a breakout 2024 campaign. He might not be as good this year, but interested teams view Vientos as a player that can carry a team when he gets hot. The former second-round has struggled on both offense and defense in 2025, but he's currently on a six-game hitting streak and could see more playing time with a change of scenery to finish this year.

Mark Vientos Absent on Sunday

New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants. This is interesting after Bob Nightengale reported Vientos could be a possible trade candidate in a deal to acquire Luis Robert Jr. from the Chicago White Sox. This could be a routine rest day or possibly the trade talk is heating up. It's worth noting that Robert is serving as the designated hitter against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. Vientos has struggled with the bat this season, so maybe a change of scenery could help him. Ronny Mauricio will cover third base and bat ninth versus left-hander Matt Gage on Sunday.

White Sox Want Mark Vientos for Luis Robert Jr.

If the Chicago White Sox are going to trade outfielder Luis Robert Jr. to the New York Mets, they're going to want third baseman/designated hitter Mark Vientos in return, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today. The Mets are known to have interest in Robert, who has struggled this year but is currently enjoying his best month of the season as the White Sox prepare to deal him. Robert has gone 13-for-37 with two homers, nine RBI, 10 runs scored, and four stolen bases in July. Acquiring the former All-Star would take care of the Mets' need for a righty-hitting outfielder. However, it's unclear whether they're willing to give up the 25-year-old Vientos to make it happen. Vientos burst on the scene with 27 home runs last season, but he has fallen short of expectations in 2025. Over 279 plate appearances, Vientos has hit .226/.280/.358 with six homers, 27 RBI, and 22 runs scored.

Mark Vientos Not Expected to be Traded

The Athetic's Tim Britton wouldn't be shocked if New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos were traded in the next week, but he also doesn't expect him to be traded, mainly because his right-handed bat can be a useful complement to Jeff McNeil and Brett Bay, who both hit left-handed, on the infield. Vientos' plate discipline has been similar to his breakout in 2024, but his quality of contact has been way down this season. The ball just hasn't been coming off his bat as expected, and it's been a concern since spring training. The Mets are putting more of an emphasis on Vientos finding more barrels, and they are hoping to see some improvement over the next two months. The 25-year-old former second-rounder is hitting just .224 (57-for-254) with six home runs and 25 RBI in 72 games. However, he's also had a hit in each of his last five games heading into this weekend.

Mark Vientos Officially Activated and Starting on Friday

As expected, New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos (hamstring) was officially activated from the 10-day injured list and is starting in Friday's series opener in Pittsburgh against the Pirates and right-hander Mitch Keller. Vientos will be eased in as the designated hitter and will bat sixth in the order, with Brett Baty at third base and hitting behind him in the seven-hole. The 25-year-old Vientos broke out for the Mets last year with 27 homers and 71 RBI in 111 regular-season games, but he was hitting just .230/.298/.380 with a below-average .678 OPS, six homers, 21 RBI and 49 strikeouts in 53 games before his hamstring injury. An xwOBA in the 19th percentile and a 32nd percentile chase rate doesn't bode well for his chances of a rebound, but the power is certainly there. Vientos might need to pick things up to fend off Baty as the regular third baseman in the second half of 2025.

Mark Vientos Says He'll Come Off Injured List on Friday

New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos (hamstring) said he will come off the 10-day injured list to rejoin the big-league roster on Friday before the series opener in Pittsburgh against the Pirates. Vientos should return to regular playing time for the Mets when he's back between third base and designated hitter. The 25-year-old went 5-for-28 with six RBI and four runs scored in seven minor-league rehab games with Triple-A Syracuse and will return to a .230/.298/.380 slash line with six home runs, 21 RBI and 22 runs scored at the big-league level. Vientos was a breakout star for the Mets in 2024 with 27 home runs and 71 RBI in 111 regular-season games, but he hasn't looked like that same hitter so far in 2025 with a strikeout rate in the 40th percentile and a chase rate in the 32nd percentile. He can still provide pop and RBI in a strong lineup, but the average is going to remain low.

Mark Vientos Could Return From Injured List on Thursday

New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos (hamstring) could be activated from the 10-day injured list on Thursday, according to manager Carlos Mendoza. The Mets will decide on whether to activate Vientos for the series finale against the division-rival Atlanta Braves on Thursday or give him an extra day off after playing in the minor leagues on Tuesday and Wednesday. If Vientos doesn't return on Thursday, he should be back for Friday's series opener against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The 25-year-old has been out since early June with a strained right hamstring, but he's on the cusp of a return to the big leagues and should return to regular starting duties at the hot corner in Queens despite his slow start to the 2025 season. Vientos broke out in 2024 with a career-high 27 homers and 71 RBI, but so far he's hit just .230 (43-for-187) with six homers and 21 RBI in 53 games in 2025.
