Vogelbach was non-tendered by the Mets on Friday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Vogelbach served as the Mets' primary designated hitter for a large portion of the 2023 season, but he posted a relatively underwhelming .233/.339/.404 batting line in 104 games (319 plate appearances) and is a liability against left-handed pitching. Mark Vientos appears poised to take over the DH role in Queens next year, pending the team's other offseason moves.
Daniel Vogelbach Sitting again Tuesday
Vogelbach is out of the lineup again Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.
Analysis: Vogelbach has been sitting lately against both righties and lefties as the Mets go with younger options at designated hitter. Mark Vientos will fill the DH role and bat seventh Tuesday versus the D-backs and right-hander Ryne Nelson.
