New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte is set to make his return in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Colorado Rockies. He will be batting second in the lineup and he will be covering his usual right field post. Marte missed the team's previous four games while he was on the bereavement list. The 33-year-old veteran has appeared in 33 games so far this year and he's slashing .266/.311/.403 with three home runs, five stolen bases, 20 RBI and 20 runs. Make sure to slide him back into your lineup for Saturday's slate.
New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte is scheduled to rejoin the team on Thursday afternoon, but he won't be activated from the bereavement list until Friday. Marte should be back in the starting lineup for the series opener on Friday against the Colorado Rockies. The 33-year-old veteran is hitting .266/.311/.403 with three home runs, 20 RBI, 20 runs scored and five stolen bases in his first 33 games for the Mets. Fantasy managers should plan to get him back in their starting lineups on Friday. Mark Canha will get a second straight start in right field on Thursday, and he's batting second against St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Dakota Hudson. Canha is hitting .299 with three dingers and 14 RBI on the year and will be a fine DFS play.

Marlins outfielder Starling Marte was the benefactor of a deadline deal that saw him go from the hapless Arizona Diamondbacks to a suddenly-contending Miami squad. Marte was one of the lone bright spots in the desert, batting .311 through the first half of the season with a pair of homers, 14 RBI and five steals. Upon moving south, Marte's fantasy value actually took a slight hit as his average was a mere .245 and he scored 10 fewer runs in five fewer games with Miami. Despite playing on a team that finished fourth in stolen base attempts per game, Marte stole an equal number of bags at five. He is no longer a 20-HR threat, especially playing half his games at Marlins Park, but Marte does remain on the short list of players who could steal upwards of 20 bases in a full season while hitting for a consistently high average. His .261 xBA was a big step back from 2019 when he was among the league leaders with a .303 xBA. Between the chaos of the season and the midseason trade, we can expect that he will regress closer to his career mark with an average around .280 with strong R+RBI totals. Marte no longer has the ceiling to be considered a top-40 pick but he is a safe bat to secure help in all five categories around 50th overall.
