Mark Vientos Is Struggling Early In The Season
1 week agoNew York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos is just 4-for-35 (.114) in his first 10 games this season and is still searching for his first home run of the 2025 regular season. Two of those four hits have been doubles, and the 25-year-old is staying patient at the plate, as evidenced by his three walks in Monday's win over the Marlins. Vientos has hit fifth or sixth in the Mets' batting order and started each of the team's 10 games. He's still locked into an everyday role, but he has just a 29.6% hard-hit rate this season, according to Statcast, which is a big decline from his 46.6% hard-hit rate last year. It's still early, for sure, but Vientos needs to rediscover his power swing to deliver on his huge fantasy potential.
