The Mets placed Taylor on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a hamstring strain, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old has been battling hamstring discomfort over the past few days and will now head to the injured list after being diagnosed with a strain. The severity of the strain is unclear, so it remains to be seen if Taylor will be able to return after spending the 10-day minimum on the shelf.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Monday that Taylor has been dealing with hamstring discomfort over the last few days, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor hadn't played in either of the Mets' last two games, though New York faced right-handed starters in both of those contests and likely wouldn't have included in the lineup even if he were healthy. The hamstring issue seems to be a day-to-day concern for Taylor, who has been showing improvement and should be back in action before long.

Taylor went 2-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored during the Mets' 19-9 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor collected his four RBIs on two separate doubles in the second and eighth frames. It was his third multi-RBI game of the season and first since June 17 against Atlanta. Taylor has three multi-hit games in his last seven games and has gone 10-for-21 (.476) with six RBI and six runs scored over that span.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
With eight hits and a 3:1 BB:K over the last six games, Taylor has been one of the Mets' more productive hitters of late, but he still appears to be relegated to the short side of the platoon. He had been included in the lineup in five of the previous six games, but four of those starts came against lefties. As anticipated, Taylor will be back on the bench Wednesday while Taijuan Walker toes the rubber for the Phillies.

Taylor went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, three runs scored and an RBI in Monday's win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
It's his second three-hit performance in his last four games as the veteran outfielder's playing time begins to pick up again. Taylor has gotten the nod twice in center field and twice in left since Aug. 21, and while three of those starts came with southpaws on the mound for the opposition, Brandon Nimmo's recent difficulty staying healthy could offer Taylor more opportunities outside of his usual short-side platoon role.

Taylor went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Friday's win over Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Getting the start in left field and batting seventh, Taylor joined in a 21-hit, 12-run barrage by the Mets. The veteran outfielder has started the last two games with Brandon Nimmo (neck) unavailable, but prior to that Taylor hadn't gotten a plate appearance since Aug. 5, as the acquisition of Cedric Mullins relegated him to a bench role. Roster depth wasn't the only reason for Taylor's reduced playing time -- he'd gone just 2-for-28 since the All-Star break before Friday's performance. Once Nimmo is clear to return, expect Taylor to once again be a spare part in the New York outfield.

Taylor went 0-for-4 with one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor is batting just .119 (5-for-42) in July, but it has yet to cost him his share of playing time in center field. He's still managed to pick up a pair of steals over 16 games this month, giving him 11 thefts on 12 attempts this season. The veteran outfielder is slashing a career-low .206/.261/.302 with two home runs, 18 RBI, 27 runs scored, 13 doubles and three triples across 286 plate appearances.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
The right-handed-hitting Taylor had started in five of the Mets' last six games while the team faced left-handed starters in all but two of those contests, but he'll be left on the bench Monday, even though the Angels are sending southpaw Tyler Anderson to the hill. Taylor should still find himself in the lineup against lefties more often than not, but his opportunities to play against right-handed pitching appear to have tailed off while Jeff McNeil has gotten more exposure to center field lately.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Taylor made five consecutive starts to close out the past week, but he'll be on the bench Wednesday for the second day in a row. With Jesse Winker returning from the injured list Tuesday and expected to clog up the designated-hitter spot moving forward, the Mets appear likely to use McNeil as their primary option in center against right-handed pitching, which will relegate Taylor to more of a fourth-outfielder role.

Taylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Though he's the best defensive center fielder on the Mets' roster, Taylor has faded into a part-time role due to his weak bat, as he's slashing .167/.219/.258 in June. He'll hit the bench for the fourth time in six games while Jeff McNeil gets the nod in center field.
