Part 4/8:
Should Marte be traded, the DH role opens up for potential candidates. Mark Vientos and Ronnie Mauricio are strong contenders for filling this spot. Mauricio, in particular, is drawing attention. He has begun baseball activities following injury recovery, demonstrating the team's faith in his ability to bounce back and contribute significantly.
Additionally, JD Martinez is no longer on the roster, further solidifying the opportunity for younger players to claim the DH position. The Mets have a wealth of options who can make an impact in the batting order, and the upcoming spring training will be critical in determining who steps up.
