Vientos scratched from Mets' lineup with abdominal soreness. Montas set to begin rehab assignment
NEW YORK (AP) — Third baseman Mark Vientos was scratched from the New York Mets' lineup Friday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers because of abdominal soreness. Vientos had been set to bat second against left-hander Clayton Kershaw. But about 65 minutes before the first pitch at rainy Citi Field, the Mets announced Vientos wouldn't start. Brett Baty shifted from second base to third and rookie Luisangel Acuña was inserted into the lineup at second base, batting ninth. Designated hitter Starling Marte moved from fifth in the order to the No. 2 slot. The 25-year-old Vientos began the night hitting .232 with five home runs, 18 RBIs and a .674 OPS. He was 6 for 45 (.133) with runners in scoring position this season. He had three homers and seven RBIs in last year's National League Championship Series against the Dodgers. In other news, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said pitcher Frankie Montas will begin a minor league rehab assignment Saturday with Class A Brooklyn. Montas, sidelined since spring training with a right lat strain, is scheduled to throw two innings and 30-35 pitches. The right-hander signed a $34 million, two-year contract with the Mets as a free agent in December after spending last season with Cincinnati and Milwaukee. The deal includes a player option for 2026. Veteran right-hander Paul Blackburn will make one more rehab start with Triple-A Syracuse next week before the Mets must decide whether to reinstate him from the injured list and add him to the active major league roster. The 31-year-old Blackburn also has been out all season. He is on the 15-day IL with right knee inflammation. Blackburn is 1-2 with a 3.91 ERA in 23 innings over six minor league starts across three levels this year. He threw seven shutout innings of one-hit ball Wednesday for Syracuse in a win against Rochester. ___ AP MLB:

Dodgers bring in former Yankees reliever for bullpen depth
Former New York Yankees reliever Lou Trivino is getting another shot. After being released by the San Francisco Giants this week, the Los Angeles Dodgers signed the right-hander to a minor league deal on Saturday, according to MLB Trade Rumors' Anthony Franco. Trivino's journey has been anything but smooth since the Yankees acquired him at the 2022 trade deadline. He was part of the deal that sent J.P. Sears and other prospects to Oakland. Former New York Yankees right-hander Lou Trivino pitches in the 2022 ALCS against the Houston Astros.© Brad Penner-Imagn Images Acquired alongside Frankie Montas from Oakland, Trivino quickly became a reliable bullpen arm in the Bronx, posting a stellar 1.66 ERA over 25 appearances and delivering four scoreless outings in the postseason. Advertisement Trivino suffered a ulnar collateral ligament tear in the 2023 spring training and he missed both the 2023 season and 2024. The Yankees declined his $5 million option for 2025, making him a free agent. Trivino signed a minor league deal with the Giants in February and made their Opening Day roster after an impressive spring. However, his regular-season performance was inconsistent, with a 5.84 ERA over 12⅓ innings, leading to his designation for assignment. Now with the Dodgers, Trivino can try to reclaim his pre-injury form. For Yankees fans, it's a reminder of that horrible 2022 trade. Montas made nine appearances and eight starts for the Yankees over two seasons. Coincidentally, he is currently on the injured list for New York's other team, the Mets. Trivino never pitched for them after the 2022 season. Advertisement Meanwhile, Sears has become a staple in an up-and-coming A's rotation and faced the Yankees on Saturday.
