Taylor went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Monday's loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor batted out of the No. 9 spot in the lineup and collected three of New York's seven hits, with one of his knocks being a solo homer in the ninth inning. That long ball was his first of the campaign and came one game after Taylor hit a double to snap a seven-game stretch with no extra-base hits. Taylor went hitless over a span of 14 at-bats between April 22 and April 27 but has gone 6-for-10 with three RBI in three games since.

Taylor is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Nationals, Andrew Tredinnick of NorthJersey.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor has now yielded to Jeff McNeil twice in four games in center field since the latter returned from the injured list. With McNeil handling center field Monday, Luisangel Acuna is covering second base for the Mets.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor will take a seat on the bench Saturday after going 0-for-11 with five strikeouts over his last three games. While he regroups, Jeff McNeil will start in center field, giving Luisangel Acuna an opportunity to start at the keystone.

Taylor went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Starting in center field and batting seventh, Taylor drew a free pass off a struggling Jordan Romano in the sixth inning and promptly got himself into scoring position with his first steal of 2025. Taylor's been a near-everyday player for the Mets since Jose Siri (lower leg) was injured, but he hasn't done much with the opportunity, batting .235 (8-for-34) over his last 10 games with two RBI, six runs and a 1:8 BB:K.

Taylor is not in the Mets' starting lineup against the Cardinals on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor will take a seat Saturday after starting in the Mets' last six games, going 4-for-20 with three runs scored and one RBI over that span. Jose Azocar will start in center field for the Mets and bat ninth against Cardinals southpaw Matthew Liberatore.

Taylor could receive the bulk of the starts in center field after Jose Siri was diagnosed with a fractured tibia Monday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor and Siri made eight starts apiece in center through the Mets' first 16 games, with neither player performing well enough to seize the everyday role. Though Siri's absence will clear the way for Taylor to potentially emerge as a mainstay in the lineup, the Mets have some alternatives if the 31-year-old is unable to dramatically improve upon his .158/.179/.211 slash line. Brandon Nimmo made 22 starts in center in 2024 and Luisangel Acuna made 31 starts in center at Triple-A Syracuse last season, though both players would likely represent defensive downgrades from Taylor. The Mets also have Jose Azocar, Gilberto Celestino and Billy McKinney at Syracuse, and it wouldn't be surprising if one of those three players received a call-up Tuesday as the corresponding move to Siri being placed on the injured list.

Taylor will start in center field and bat seventh in Tuesday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
After going 2-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's 2-0 win, Taylor will be awarded a second consecutive start. Though the Mets' center-field situation appears to be fluid, manager Carlos Mendoza seems to be prioritizing Taylor at the moment while Jose Siri has slashed .059/.200/.118 through the team's first 10 games.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
For the second game in a row, Taylor will hit the bench while the opposition sends a right-hander to the mound. The Mets' center-field situation appears to be fluid, but for now, Jose Siri may be a slightly favored option over Taylor after Siri made an impact in his team debut Saturday in Houston by going 0-for-2 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored.
