Mets' Juan Soto Out Second Straight Game With Illness

Mets' Juan Soto Out Second Straight Game With Illness

Soto has played only 8 games this season with a .416 xwOBA, yet the Mets remain 22-31 and -21 in run differential—his absence compounds an offense averaging 3.9 RS/G. The timing is poor with Cincinnati's Lodolo (likely strong starter based on context) on the mound tonight.

Soto's return (.353 AVG, .380 OBP in 8 G) provides offensive juice to a team that scored just 78 runs through 24 games, but Lindor's IL stint removes their only reliable on-base threat (.341 OBP) and leaves the infield vulnerable at shortstop.

Mets to Reinstate Juan Soto Wednesday

Soto returns with a .355 AVG and .516 SLG through 8 games but the Mets remain 7-15 (0-10 in last 10) with a -25 run differential, meaning one bat cannot fix a rotation posting a 4.84 ERA and allowing 97 runs in 22 games.

Soto resting for Mets

Soto is hitting .355/.321/.516 (0.321 xwOBA) through 8 games but sits to manage workload early. NYM is 7-5 with a +13 run differential and can absorb his absence given Peralta (0.21 ERA, 1-0), Holmes (0.16 ERA, 2-0), and Senga (0.21 ERA) anchoring a rotation with a sub-0.25 collective ERA.

Soto (.355, 5 RBI in early season) exits during a 2-3 stretch that already stalled NYM's momentum at 6-4. Mets lack an obvious replacement in their outfield, forcing a reshuffling while rotation anchors Peralta (2.70 ERA) and Senga (3.02 ERA) carry offensive burden.
