D'Arnaud is not in the lineup Thursday against the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud will sit for the second straight game after aggravating a wrist injury during Tuesday's contest. Rene Rivera will once again serve as backstop in his stead. D'arnaud should be considered day-to-day until the Mets update his status, but a trip to the DL could be a possibility if he isn't back for the weekend series against the Marlins.

D'Arnaud (wrist) is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Braves, David O'Brien of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud aggravated a wrist injury Tuesday and was pulled early in that contest, so it's not too surprising that manager Terry Collins will hold the backstop out of the lineup a day later. Rene Rivera will receive the nod behind the dish, catching for Jacob deGrom. The Mets are viewing d'Arnaud as day-to-day for now, but a trip to the disabled list could become a more realistic possibility if he's still hurting once the weekend arrives.

D'Arnaud exited Tuesday's game against the Braves early due to a sore right wrist, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
D'Arnaud missed a short stretch of games earlier this season with wrist pain. It appears that this discomfort has reemerged and forced the catcher to exit Tuesday's game early. It's unclear if the early exit was simply precautionary or if d'Arnaud will have to miss more time. For now, he'll be considered day-to-day.

D'Arnaud exited Tuesday's game against the Braves early, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The reason for d'Arnaud's early departure is not yet known, but the starting catcher was replaced by Kevin Plawecki between the fifth and sixth inning. D'Arnaud was 0-for-3 with a strikeout prior to his early exit. A report on his condition should become available shortly.

D'Arnaud (back) is batting seventh and playing catcher Monday against the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
After getting Sunday's game off with back tightness, d'Arnaud is back in the lineup. The 28-year-old will look to turn things around at the plate Monday, as he has just two hits (albeit home runs) in his last 22 at-bats (both in the same game).

D'Arnaud is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
With Noah Syndergaard on the bump, his usual battery-mate Rene Rivera will draw the start behind the plate. D'Arnaud, who has seven RBI in his past three games, is currently dealing with back tightness and is being considered day-to-day. With Sunday's day of rest, he'll hopefully be ready to go for Monday's contest against the Braves.

D'Arnaud was hindered by some back tightness during Saturday's game, but will get Sunday's game off anyways with Noah Syndergaard on the rubber, James Wagner of The New York Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The tightness was bad enough to warrant a mid-game meeting with trainers, but d'Arnaud stayed in throughout the entirety of the contest, going 0-for-3 with an RBI and a run. Consider him day-to-day heading into the off day.

D'Arnaud went 2-for-3 with a walk, two home runs and five RBI in Friday's 7-5 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Impressively, both homers came off Max Scherzer. With four homers and 15 RBI on the season, d'Arnaud has already matched last year's power production in 56 fewer games.

D'Arnaud (wrist) is catching and batting eighth Tuesday against the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
D'arnaud has been dealing with wrist pain over the past week, causing him to be held out of the starting lineup for the last four games (though he was able to make brief appearances in each game). His wrist is feeling well enough to throw, Matt Ehalt of The Record reports, prompting manager Terry Collins to reinsert him as the Mets' backstop. The 28-year-old is slashing .244/.326/.488 with two homers and nine RBI through 41 at-bats.

D'Arnaud (wrist) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
It was recently reported that d'Arnaud was still dealing with wrist pain, so he'll remain out of the lineup Sunday. With d'Arnaud out, the Mets will start Kevin Plawecki behind the dish. There's yet to be any indication that d'Arnaud will land on the DL, so consider him day-to-day for the time being.
