Mets' Luis Guillorme: Headed to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Mets optioned Guillorme to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.
He'll head down to the minors to clear room on the 26-man active roster for corner infielder Mark Vientos, who was called up from Triple-A. Guillorme is the Mets' best and most versatile defensive infielder, but his bat has been even weaker than usual this season and the floundering New York offense could benefit from the higher offensive upside that Vientos offers.

Mets' Luis Guillorme: Losing work to Escobar
Rotowire
Guillorme is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Milwaukee.
Before he landed on the injured list Aug. 15, Guillorme had filled the strong side of a platoon at third base with Eduardo Escobar. However, the lefty-hitting Guillorme looks to have faded into a reserve role since his return from the groin injury a week ago, as Escobar has earned himself more work against right-handed pitching by producing at the plate. Escobar will stick in the lineup Monday with reigning Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes on the hill for MIlwaukee.

Guillorme had been on the IL with a strained groin since Aug. 15. Having hit .283/.355/.357 and provided solid defense around the infield this season, the 27-year-old should get plenty of playing time for the remainder of the season, especially while Starling Marte (finger) is out of the lineup.
