Player Outlook
The Mets, in DJ Stewart, have a slimmed down version of Daniel Vogelbach that they can actually use at a position. Vogelbach was strictly a DH against righties whereas Stewart can play left field thanks to the strength of his throwing arm even if he is rather limited in his range. Stewart is up at the plate to elevate and celebrate with a propensity for pulling the ball with extreme prejudice as just three of his hits in 2023 were to the opposite field. Stewart did split time between Triple-A and the majors and finished with 26 homers and 102 strikeouts in 348 plate appearances. He has struck out in 27.6% of the time in just over 800 career plate appearances, and should be in a strong side of a platoon in right field where he can be benched against lefties and pulled for late inning defensive purposes. This, of course, assumes the club is not intent on upgrading the position with a better option. The best case scenario for Stewart is NL-Only late round viability.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Heads to bench versus lefty

    Stewart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals. Stewart will take a seat to begin Sunday's game while the Royals bring left-hander Cole Ragans to the hill. With Stewart on the bench, Starling Marte will serve as the Mets' designated hitter, and Tyrone Taylor will draw a start in right field.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: First hit of season leaves yard

    Stewart went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Monday's win over Atlanta. The 30-year-old came into the game having gone 0-for-10 to start the season, but Stewart broke a 5-5 tie in the eighth inning by launching a Pierce Johnson curveball over the fence in center field. Stewart has been the Mets' regular DH against right-handed pitching to begin the season, but he'll lose that role -- and potentially even his spot on the 26-man roster -- when J.D. Martinez (body soreness) is ready to make his debut for the club.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: On bench against lefty

    Stewart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The lefty-hitting Stewart is on the bench for the second day in a row while Cincinnati brings southpaw Andrew Abbott to the hill for the series finale. With manager Carlos Mendoza noting earlier Sunday that J.D. Martinez (general body soreness) isn't in line to make his Mets debut until at least Friday, Stewart should retain a role as the team's primary designated hitter during its four-game series in Atlanta to begin the upcoming week.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Gets Saturday off

    Stewart isn't in the Mets' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds. After starting the year 0-for-8, Stewart will step out of New York's lineup Saturday to regroup. His absence will shift Brandon Nimmo into the DH spot, allowing Tyrone Taylor to start in left field.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Resting in nightcap

    Stewart isn't in the Mets' lineup for Game 2 of Thursday's twin bill against the Tigers.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: On bench again Sunday

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Absent from lineup

    Stewart isn't in the Mets' lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Occupying DH spot

    Stewart is starting at designated hitter and batting sixth Friday against the Brewers, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. The Mets have some at-bats available at DH on a short-term basis as J.D. Martinez ramps up after signing late, and Stewart looks like he'll receive the bulk of them versus righties. Stewart collected an .840 OPS with 11 home runs in a 58-game sample for the Mets last season, with 10 of those 11 homers coming off right-handers.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Swats first spring homer

    Stewart went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals. Getting the start in left field and batting leadoff, Stewart took Trevor Williams deep in the first inning for his first long ball of the spring. The 30-year-old outfielder revived his career with the Mets last season, but he slumped in September and hasn't looked any better at the plate in camp, batting .200 (5-for-25) with Friday's homer being his only extra-base hit. He's still penciled into a spot on the Mets' Opening Day bench.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Avoids arb at $1.38M

    Stewart signed a one-year, $1.38 million contract with the Mets on Friday, avoiding arbitration, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports. Stewart had to settle for a minor-league contract last winter, but he made his way up to Queens in early July and went on to post an .840 OPS with 11 home runs across 58 major-league games. The 29-year-old corner outfielder looks poised to get regular starts against right-handers in 2024.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Sits out first game of twin bill

    Stewart is absent from the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Marlins, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Stewart is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Stewart has a .333/.387/.860 slash line with nine homers and 18 RBI in 16 games dating back to Aug. 15, though every start during that stretch came against a right-handed pitcher. Jeff McNeil will shift to right field while Tim Locastro starts in left.

  • Mets' DJ Stewart: Possible waiver wire pickups

    This one has trouble written all over it, I'm afraid, but when a no-name homers eight times in a 13-game span, including twice on Wednesday, it needs to be addressed. Rest assured that Stewart's power was never in question. He even had a stretch like this late in 2020, homering seven times in a nine-game span for Orioles, and it led to the longest look he's ever gotten in 2021. What he did with it was hit .204 with a .698 OPS. He was also hitting just .229 for Triple-A Syracuse when the Mets decided to bring him in as a warm body following their trade deadline purge. His destiny is to be a space-filler on a club in between contention cycles, but hey, he's doing a lot of the one thing he knows how to do. Maybe in a five-outfielder Rotisserie league, if you're looking to make up ground and homers and can avoid using him against lefties, Stewart has some utility.
