Marte went 1-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 9-3 win over the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The sixth-inning blast off Matt Barnes was Marte's first homer of the season. The veteran outfielder has hit safely in six of eight games so far, batting .276 (8-for-29) with five runs and three steals.

Marte went 1-for-3 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old got a late start to his spring due to offseason groin surgery, but Marte's legs have looked 100 percent healthy to begin the regular season. Through seven games, he's batting .280 (7-for-25) with three runs scored and three steals in four attempts. Marte swiped 47 bags as recently as 2021, and MLB's rule changes might have him poised to challenge or even top that mark this year.

Marte will sit Saturday against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Marte started the first two games of the season, going 2-for-4 with a stolen base in both contests. He'll rest his legs Saturday, with Jeff McNeil moving out to right field and Luis Guillorme starting at second base.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

That's now two steals in two games for the 34-year-old, who swiped 47 bags in 2021 but fell back to only 18 in 118 games last season with a mediocre success rate. If MLB's rule changes have rejuvenated that part of Marte's game, he still has the wheels to be among the league leaders in stolen bases in 2023 provided he can stay mostly healthy.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 5-3 win over Miami.

EDGE Analysis

Batting second between Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Lindor, Marte notched a couple singles and also his first steal of the new campaign. It's another sign that he's feeling good after an injury-riddled year that eventually led to double groin surgery in the offseason. Marte was hot at the plate during Grapefruit League play, slashing .344/.361/.563 with four doubles, a homer and two steals in 12 spring games.

Marte went 0-for-2 with an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran outfielder hasn't seen much action this spring as he completed his recovery from offseason groin surgery, so the fact that he was able to swipe his first bag in five games Friday is a great sign that he's feeling 100 percent. Marte hasn't played more than 120 games in either of the last two seasons, and the Mets may give him plenty of rest in 2023 in an attempt to keep him healthy, but the 34-year-old still figures to post strong fantasy numbers when he is in the lineup.

Marte (head) is back in the Mets' Grapefruit League lineup Tuesday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Marte took a pitch to the helmet Sunday, but he has passed a couple rounds of concussions tests and is ready to return to exhibition play. The veteran outfielder has also made steady strides in his recovery from offseason groin surgery and should be fully ready for Opening Day.

Manager Buck Showalter said Marte (head) could return to the Mets' Grapefruit League lineup as soon as Tuesday against the Nationals, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Marte avoided a concussion after being hit in the helmet by a pitch Sunday and told Showalter on Monday that he felt fine. The outfielder will continue to be monitored just in case, but he appears to have dodged a bullet.

Marte's initial evaluation was negative for a concussion after he was hit in the head by a pitch during Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old was able to walk off the field under his own power and appears to have avoided any serious issues after the scary hit-by-pitch. Marte will be further evaluated Monday and should be considered day-to-day until his status is updated.

Marte was removed from Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays after being hit in the head by a pitch, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran outfielder was thankfully able to leave the field under his own power, and he may now be subject to the league's concussion protocols. Marte seems likely to be held out of the lineup for at least a day or two, even if he avoids a concussion. He didn't make his spring debut until Friday after undergoing core muscle surgery during the offseason, and he now has another hurdle to overcome in camp.
