J.D. Martinez resting for Mets Sunday
The New York Mets did not list J.D. Martinez as a starter for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.
What It Means
The Mets will give J.D. Martinez the afternoon off, moving DJ Stewart into the DH spot while Harrison Bader joins the outfield. The veteran had a late start to the season between a delayed free agency period and a late spring injury, but has been solid since returning to the lineup. He's batting .375 with a .875 OPS in his first 8 Mets plate appearances.
