J.D. Martinez sidelined from Tuesday’s lineup by Mets due to ankle pain

J.D. Martinez has been removed from the Mets lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Washington Nationals due to a sore left ankle. The team has decided to replace him with catcher Luis Torrens as the designated hitter. Torrens will now bat sixth in the lineup, behind Francisco Alvarez, while Mark Vientos has been moved up to the three-hole.

No further information was provided regarding Martinez’s condition. Despite this setback, Martinez has been performing well for the Mets in his debut season with the team. In 56 games played, he is batting .278 with 10 home runs and 37 RBI. His absence in the lineup will be felt, but the team remains confident in the depth of their roster to step up in his place.
