Expected to be sent down
The Mets will option Young to Triple-A Syracuse prior to Friday's game in Pittsburgh, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.
Analysis
The left-handed-hitting Young hadn't started any of the last three games versus right-handed pitching, indicating a demotion might be coming. He's being sent down to make room on the roster for the return of Mark Vientos (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list.

On bench against righty again
Young is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
Analysis
After making three consecutive starts against right-handed pitching, the left-handed-hitting Young will now take a seat versus a righty (Didier Fuentes) for the second day in a row. With a .642 OPS and 78 wRC+ in 44 plate appearances with the Mets, Young has been a below-league-average hitter since being called up from Triple-A Syracuse on May 24. Given his weak production at the plate and lack of defensive flexibility, Young could be a prime candidate to get demoted to Triple-A when the Mets need to open up a roster spot for Mark Vientos (hamstring), who could be activated from the injured list as soon as Thursday.

Sitting after two straight starts
Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Analysis
Young had served as the Mets' designated hitter while the team faced right-handed starting pitchers in the first two games of the series, but he'll give way to Starling Marte in the series finale while southpaw Jesus Luzardo toes the rubber for Philadelphia. Young and Marte could be deployed in a soft platoon at DH until Mark Vientos (hamstring) makes his return from the injured list.
